Miscellaneous Information

1) We have a copy of the marriage recording for Hannah and Eli.

2) We have a copy of the marriage license and marriage return for Eli and Rachel. They were married in Rachel's home.  There is a discrepancy on the marriage date.

3) We have various documents regarding land transactions by Matthias Andis (Eli's grandfather) and his heirs. They include purchase, sale and distribution of land in Washington Co, VA. These are very important documents to our research, as they conclusively tie Matthias, his children, and his grandchildren together.

4) Eli's deposition was taken when his sister, Julia (Andis) Bowman, was attempting to acquire pension money after the death of her son, Pleasant H, in the Civil War.  (click here to view all depositions)

5) 3) We have copies of Eli and Rachel's divorce documents.

6) We have a brief obituary for Eli.  It was transcribed from a Martin County newspaper clipping.
