SKIDMORE, MARY ELIZABETH "BETTY" (1) - Izard County, Arkansas | MARY ELIZABETH "BETTY" (1) SKIDMORE - Arkansas Gravestone Photos

Mary Elizabeth "Betty" (1) SKIDMORE

Trimble Campground Cemetery
Izard County,
Arkansas

14 Feb 1869 - 10 Dec 1941 Maries County, Missouri died in Izard County, Arkansas.

Marriage:
1) William Thomas "Tommy" Staggs 28 Sept 1888
2) J.L. Burns 1904 Izard County, Arkansas
3) Henry Harrison "Harry" Skidmore 1908 Izard County, Arkansas

Mary Elizabeth "Betty" (Harris) Staggs Burns Skidmore daughter of Jordan Harris and Josephine (Kirkendall) Harris.

Note: There are two gravestones that are side by side that are obviously for the same person based upon genealogical research and dates on the gravestone. This is the older gravestone and it shows the name as Betty Staggs. The newer one has the name inscribed as Betty (Harris) Staggs Skidmore. It would appear that even though she was married twice after the death of her first husband that the older gravestone listed her original married name. Also the newer gravestone has the death year shown as 1940; however, the Arkansas Death Index shows that Betty Skidmore died December 10, 1941, in Izard County.
