Original Decatur Co. Indiana Landowner lists Eli Michael 2 July 1834 Pg 166. Crist Garst gave me a birth date of 1796 for Eli ??? His tombstone in the Harris Cemetery, Sullivan Co. Mo. says Eli Michael died Aug 20, 1869 aged 62 years. This would put his birth date 1802. I have a copy of his stone, mispelled Michel but among the Evans Niccum and Michael graves.
