BIO: In March, 1884, Eleanor's brothers, Henry and Enoch, and her husband, William SHOUP, took part in the sale of land to John HISSONG in Richland Twp. On that document, Henry's wife, Hannah, also was a participant, but Eleanor apparently was not involved directly. In 1889, Eleanor and five of her brothers and sisters applied for pension benefits from their father's Civil War disability. On the application, she gives her exact date of birth. There is no mention of her first name on the file, but on the marriage index it appears as "Maude E. MOW." On the WFT CD, Ms. NORDQUIST records this child of David and Eleanor MOW as "Eleanor Medhurst".
