Died:
Elizabeth is shown as a widow in 1900 census living with son Jeff and wife June Gentz Hargraves. Donna Storz explains: "He did die on 28 April 1913 of carbolic acid poisoning (suicide). Elizabeth says 'widowed' in 1900 census probably because she didn't want to say divorced. She filed for divorce in April 1898 citing 'unkind, harsh and tyranical [sic] treatment' toward her. I have a copy of the original complaint which her great, great grandson provided me. According to the complaint they stopped living together in April 1896 as she couldn't stand the ill treatment which had begun within 6 years of their marriage. His treatment of her was 'excessive, cruel & outrageous and of such a nature as to render their ever again living together insupportable, and that she is entitled to a divorce.'"

Levi married Elizabeth Ann Gallier on 12 Dec 1860 in Jefferson Co, Texas. Elizabeth (daughter of Joseph Gallier, Sr and Mary Catherine Hayes) was born on 27 Jun 1844 in Louisiana; died on 08 Aug 1901 in Jefferson Co, Texas; was buried in Burrell Cem, Taylor Bayou, Labelle/Fannett, Jefferson Co, Texas.

G.W. Hargraves who was captain of a little Beaumont Company of militia in August, 1835, had sixty-two men under him, twenty of whom took part in the battle of the Alamo. He also was at the head of twenty-one volunteers who started to join houston to stop the advance of Santa Anna, but the battle of San Jacinto was fought before they reached that place, and they were ordered to rout some hostile Indians north of the town.
