She was 80 per her Miami Co., Ohio Death certificate registration no. 5321, file no. 44221,register no. 5. Cause of death chronic intestinal(something I can't read :() and contributed to by "dialation" of the heart. Married Josiah Boitnott 12/14/1859. Had 3 children: William Benjamin, Joseph Peter and Eliza Jain. Josiah joined Confederate Army and later remarried Mary Ann (Molly) Abshire and had 12 children. Elizabeth remarried Lewis Blankenship. I do not know the date or if they actually got married, but they had 7 children plus the 3 boitnott children. They lived on 33 acre farm near Boone's Mill on Blackwater River, Vs.

Josiah Boinott died in 1938 in Tipp City, Ohio. There is a book called "Boitnott and related Families by John Boitnott. I will have to check my records for exact date. I don't know if divorces done then. It is family tradition that he went to war and never went back to Elizabeth and their three children , but remarried. Elizabeth must have thought he died in the war and eventually met Lewis. Seems there was alot of this type thing back then, as Lewis was married before he married Elizabeth. I don't know who he was married to or what happened to that first wife or her name, but they may or may not have had children. We don't seem to know any exact birth or death dates for Lewis.
