Biography
Ellen was born about 1826 in England. [1][2]
Find a Grave Memorial
The grave marker for Ellen Gilchrist does not show ( at least in the pictures) her exact Death Date but it is clear she died October 19, 189?. The stone shows that she was 67 years old so I have made the assumption that her year of death was 1893 given her approximate year of birth of 1826. [3]
