Elizabeth's obituary, which I have transcribed below, states that she was survived by a sister Ruth Nelson of Creston, Kan., and I had previously noted in this memorial that I had not been able to find that a Creston, Kansas, existed. On September 20, 2014, I received the following additional information from Phyllis Nelson, who lives near Riley County, Kansas: "My husband is a descendant from Ruth Nelson mentioned in the obituary. Ruth Nelson lived in Preston, Kansas. Her maiden name was Ruth Vanhook Modrell. My husband's father stayed with his grandmother and wrote a lot of family history which we found when he died. We've spent most of our married life authenticating his information and found most to be pretty accurate. Thought you might want to add correction to the Find-a-grave information. Our records have the mother's name as Angelina Clark Moddrell. She left Iowa and moved to Swede Creek, Riley Co, Kansas. Angelina died there shortly after the 1880 census. The rest of the family moved to other parts of Kansas." --------------- Obituary From Ottumwa Courier, August 18, 1927: Mrs. Elizabeth R.
