Notes: The data on Lulu Elliott Riddle Lewis was given to me by the direct descendants of Lulu, namely Becca Smith, and Sharleen Lawrence. I also had immeasurable help from Cathy O'Conner another Riddle researcher and cousin, and Debbie Tarantino, my most recently found cousin.
Obituary for Eliza was obtained by the help of a Random Acts of Genealogical Kindness Volunteer.
Without the help of these people I would not have a lot of this information; I thank them all. Joan
update 2/2004: Information on the mother of Eliza has not been confirmed with documentation, nor the death date of her father.
update 6/09/2006:Information on Eliza's parents and marriage to Eckels Elliott confirmed by marriage license and census records. Another cousin found Richard Williams.
The picture is of my dad Jesse Riddle and Lemuel Riddle. Jesse's dad, and Lemuel's dad were identical twins; William and James Riddle.
