Death Notice for Elizabeth Humes in The Saginaw Weekly Enterprise, 13 Oct 1864

This is the death notice for Elizabeth Humes, published in The Saginaw Weekly Enterprise on October 13, 1964.  Elizabeth is listed in the second column, third from the bottom.  Her name is highlighted in a red box.

Elizabeth Humes is the 5th great-grandmother of my half-brother, Noah, on his maternal side.  I don’ t know her maiden name, or much about where she came from.  The family believes she may have been born in Scotland.  She was married to William Humes, born about 1801 in Scotland.  My half brother is descended from their son, Alexander D Humes (1832 – 1896).

Since this death notice simply states Elizabeth Humes died within the year, we are unsure of her exact death date.  I do not believe there was an actual obituary published for her in Saginaw.
