Biography

Elizabeth was born circa 1844 in the Bahamas.[1] Her parents remain unidentified.

She married first Adolphus James Russell on 24 March 1867 in Key West, Florida, in a ceremony performed by S. Gardner, Minister.[2] They apparently divorced early in the 1870s, as Adolphus returned to the Bahamas and both remarried.

She married second John McFerris Lowe on 19 December 1872 in Key West in a ceremony performed by Charles G. Baron, Justice of the Peace.[3]

Elizabeth is last of record with her family in the 1885 Florida State Census in Key West.[4] She probably died there before John M. Lowe remarried in 1892.[5]

Sources

  1. The 1870 census states that Elizabeth was twenty-six years old, implying a birth circa 1844. The 1880 census states that she was thirty-one, implying a birth circa 1849. Elizabeth was older than her second husband, so the latter schedule may have tried to minimize the difference. 1870 U.S. Census, Monroe County, Florida, population schedule, Key West, stamped page 313, sheet 5, dwelling 36, family 34, Mathew M.
