Family



She was born in Wakefield, England in March of 1802. She died in July of 1871 and is

buried in Frankfort, KY.
This is her gravesite in the Frankfort Cemetary which is the oldest cemetary in Frankfort. She was my Great,Great, Great, Grandmother, Elinor Peace Collette Conery. My Mom used to tell me about her and how she had married three husbands and had children by all. Her obituary is really pretty flowery and we had an old picture of her gravesite so naturally, when I drove thru Frankfort this year I decided to update the picture. The only thing is the grave doesn't say Elinor or Eleanor; it says Helen. Methinks
we have a mystery. Oh well, it was fun to find her and I must say, she is in good company. Daniel Boone and his wife are located right around the corner.
