However, although Emily's birth date fits as a daughter of John James and Ann Malvina (Culpepper) Elliott, she did not appear in 1860 or 1870 in census records of the family. The second wife of Missouri's brother, Lewis, was named Emily but she was recorded in the 1910 census and this Emily is supposed to have died in 1898.
