1. Lucy Delilah ELDRIDGE b. 2 Nov 1852, Brooklyn Township, Cuyahoga, Ohio; d. 2 Jan 1923, Cleveland, Cuyahoga, Ohio.
2. Moses Albert ELDRIDGE

A Worldtree entry shows that his death probably occured after 1871, but it seems unlikely if it really is his wife who appears in the 1850 census in Brooklyn, Cuyahoga County, Ohio (see her record for exact page). It is really likely that it IS her because she is living the next house over from her brother and has two of her brother's children living with her, but her husband is not shown. So it is possible that he died prior to 1850, or he might have been travelling when the census was taken.

Said to have lived in Fremont, Ohio.
