| Death |
28 Apr 1913 |
Labelle, Jefferson Co, Texas [1] |
- 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.'"
