(Obituary article attached has the marriage between Samuel and Almira January 29, 1851. Illinois, Marriages, 1851-1900 document that is on ancestry.com, states 29 June 1851. I have viewed document at 3fold.com, where Almira had to prove she was married to Samuel after his death, to receive widows pension, and it states 29 Jun 1851, I believe this to be the correct date for their marriage and obituary is wrong. Also the obituary states Almira and Isaac marriage 22 Dec 1847 and marriage record from ancestry.com "Illinois Marriages to 1850" states marriage date of 22 Dec 1846). (FAG deleted the article for her obituary).
Spoke with sexton 12-7-2014, he says that Almira and Rhoda are not buried in Princeton, (obituary says Almira is) at least they are not listed. More research!
