There are 2 death records in 1865 for an Elizabeth Hylton.

One states “d. 4-7-1865 of typhoid fever, 42y 3m, d/o Henry & Margaret. Inf: Henry A. Hylton, son” (transcript by Majorie Flour & Margarite Tice).

The other states “d. 5-9-1865 Floyd Co., VA of typhoid fever, 22y, d/o Henry & Margaret” (ancestry.com online posting).

Don Helton (& I have to agree) believes it is most likely the same record but for is it a death record for this Elizabeth.

Henry A. Hylton & wife Margaret did have a daughter named Elizabeth that would have been about 22 yr in 1865 & her mother Margaret also died of typhoid fever. However, they don’t appear to be buried together, which I find unusual as they died within days of each other.

Don believes this Elizabeth is a d/o of George Hylton & Tabitha Green who was b. abt 1809. She is living next door to George Bunky Hylton in 1850 & George is a known s/o George & Tabitha. There is also an Elizabeth Hylton noted as a “sister” with George in 1880.
