    Notes:

    Buried in Shiloh Cemetary, Eureka, Lawrence County, Indiana. He served as juror in Rockingham County, VA in May 1781. His service was on the case, Cravens, Admr. vs. Ewing. The jurors were: John Brown, Elijah Garten, James Shannon, John Robertson, Peter Hinton, Geo. Hinton, Derby Reagan, Thomas More, John Reeves, James _oling, Brewer Reeves, and Thomas Hicks "who returned papers without agreeing" (note 1). He recieved a Tellico Grant from the Knox County Circuit Court Certificate No. 7 dated October 1, 1810. He got 150 acres in Knox County, Kentucky on Briar creek next to property of Richard Browning. He and sons would carry meal, apples, and other products of the farm to Knoxville, Tenn. in a pirogue (made by hollowing out a huge tree turnk) from their home in Knox County, Kentucky. Elijah followed his sons to Indiana and settled on a part of the land of son, James, in Lawrence County, Indiana. Elijah was a hunter and not a farmer. The first time he tried his hand at farming he did so by pulling up the dead corn stalks of the year before and dropping the seed where the old plant had been. He never owned agricultural implements. All he needed was his horse pack saddle and his rifle. Elijah seldom bragged of his hunting exploits. He never hunted with dogs relying on his keen eyesight and woodsman skills to hunt deer, bear, and turkeys. He would take his rifle and white horse and go on hunting trips throughout southern Indiana. Elijah was near 6 feet tall, rather rawboned with dark hair and grey eyes. Next to hunting his life was devoted to religion. His days were opened with the singing of hymns and prayer. He had been a Presbyterian in Virginia and Kentucky but helped found the Shiloh Methodist Church around Fayetteville, Indiana (note 2). He had a small "corn cracker" as early as 1819 near Fayetteville, Indiana. The power for running it was supplied by an inclined wheel and a small but active steer (note 3). He was in Lawrence County, Indiana from before 1820 until his death (notes 4 & 5). NOTE 1: source - Constance A. and Louise C. Levinson, Rockingham County, Virginia minute book, 1778-1792 in no series, I (1778-1786) (Harrisonburg, Virginia: Greystone Publishers, 1985), 89, This proof of jury service is enough for membership in the DAR/SAR.
