My 5th great-grandparents Daniel Gilleland, Sr. and Precilla Boatwright (Anders line) were married on this day in 1819 somewhere in Old Miller County, Arkansas Territory [1].
My great-grandmother Aafje (Orpha) Vandermade (Thompson line) died on this day in 1974 at Rosewood General Hospital in Houston, Harris, Texas [2, 3, 4]. She was buried at Oakwood Cemetery in Muskegon, Muskegon, Michigan. She had been living with her son Clark Minard Thompson when she died.
