Ellis Jeffcoat
Looking for information on my great grandmother. Her tombstone reads "Ellis Coats". But, Arkansas marriage records show J Penson/Pinson (my great grandfather) married Ellis Jeffcoat in 1872. Her death certificate lists father's name as Jeffcoat. On her widow's application for for civil war pension, she lists her name as "J. Ellis Pinson". She also confirms she married J. G. Pinson on the same date and town as listed in the Arkansas marriage records. So, I believe it is safe to assume her actual last name was really Jeffcoat. She is listed in one census as Jennie. All others show her name as Ellis. Also, the death certificates for their sons also list maternal maiden name as Jeffcoat.
She was born in September, 1857 in either Arkansas, Georgia or Louisiana. Does anyone have any information of this person? I have been unable to find her in any census record prior to 1880 or after she married my great-grandfather.
