Adding a P.S. to Samuel Seely Griffin Info

In following up on Nathaniel Harris, father in law of Samuel Seely Griffin, we were able to find descendants who have matched and expanded on our information. Through their notes, we now know that Samuel S. and Elizabeth died in Farmington, Fulton County, IL. This information is found on Find-A-Grave. Elizabeth died April 2, 1847 and is buried in Oak Ridge Cemetery, section OG, inscribed as "wife of Rev. S. S. Griffin" "age 65 years." In the same section is the grave of Rev. S. S. Griffin, d. Feb. 1873, and N. H. Griffin, d. 1843. This was probably a young son, possibly in his teen years.
