     He was born circa 1826 at Illinois, USA.3 Alternatively, he may have been born on 8 July 1827 at Johnstown, Licking County, Ohio, USA.2 Elias married Lydia Eveline Pasley on 12 March 1862 at Jacksonville, Morgan County, Illinois, USA.1,3,4
     Elias Franklin Curll died on 5 April 1883 at Morgan County, Illinois, USA, I wonder if he actually died in Kansas, since that is where Lydia and the children were found in the 1885 state census.5,2
