Joshua French, father of Elizabeth French Ewing, probably died soon a fter (or possibly before) Elizabeth's birth in 1819 near Louisville , KY. Her mother, also named Elizabeth, then remarried to Martin/Fra ncis Verry/Vary in Floyd Co. IN. Upon this husband's death, the youn g Elizabeth's mother moved her family to Perry Co. IN. It is though t that the older Elizabeth, whose maiden name was Boyles, was probabl y a sister to Hannah Boyles, wife of George Ewing, Jr. Therefore, wh en James V. Ewing (son of George Ewing, Jr.) married the young Elizab eth French, he was marrying a first cousin.
