Very little is known about Elizabeth Ritchie Dunn. She married John M Dunn in Harrison County, Kentucky on November 30, 1848; certified by Josiah Whitaker. She is shown in an 1860 Census in Harrison, Kentucky with husband and 7 children, as well as 1870. The 1870 Census has an estimated birth year being 1826 instead of 1824. In an 1880 Census in Harrison, Kentucky, she is shown with husband John M Dunn, two sons, Larkin and Benjamin Dunn, one daughter, Eva Ellen Dunn, and grandson, Mortimer Dunn. Birthyear still estimated being 1826. No death rercord has been found, yet. Or an official birth record. I have found a record for an Elizabeth Ritchey in Ireland with a husband John M Dunn, but it is not attached because it hasn't been double checked. It is my belief she was of Native American decent for the lack of records. This profile is still a work in progress, please feel free to add any information you may know of. Thank you.
