She was the daughter of James Richards and Anna Matteson. She passed away about 1892.[1]
It seems likely that this is the correct Eliza appearing in the 1880 Census below. Birth Dates aligns, and this would be the first Census after her first husband died, so it makes sense for her to be living with her family.I'm uncertain which branch of the Richards family she is staying with here though - Lucy Lavelle 09:11, 5 October 2020 (UTC)
