No headstone or record of burial lot. Info taken from death record. Very likely in Potters Field

Baby Elizabeth's parents were from Transylvania, Romania. My grandmother Silvia Radu, was sold in marriage to John Aldea, for 36 horses. He had money, so if it is the case that Elizabeth was buried under these circumstances (potter's field), it's got me "scratching my head" so to speak. From my observation, Romanians of that time period, buried their loved ones with their Romanian affinity group, if that gives us a clue, perhaps.

My father told me about his older sister, many years ago, and finally I can learn a little more about her through this death certificate.
