Elthea A. Legate was born abt. April, 1866 in Hamilton Co., Ill. Since she died on December 14, 1904 and Elthea A. Legate Taylor appears in the 1900 census for Grand Rapids, Mich. Kent Co. and is buried in Grand Rapids, Mich. Kent Co. along with her husband in the same cemetery, it is my opinion that she died in Grand Rapids, Mich. Kent Co.
