Biography
Lillian and Scott farmed in Union Township, Ohio.
She is buried in Union Cemetery, Morristown, Ohio.
A Note of Caution
There is confusion about Lillian on several Ancestry Family Trees. Apparently there was at least one other Lillian Jeffrey born in Ohio about 1871.
Our family lore says that Lillian married Scott Groves but no primary source has yet been discovered to prove that Scott's wife was "our" Lillian. Perhaps the best circumstantial evidence is that Lillian, Scott and their son, Jeffrey, are buried in Union Cemetery as are Lillian's parents, James Jeffrey and Sarah Rogers. In fact, Sarah (Rogers) Jeffrey's parents, Arthur Rogers and Hannah Nichols, are also buried there.
