Note that the Springfield MM records are fairly clear in showing Ruth's death date as 4-28-18488 yet Mordecai and children were shown in the 1850 census above with a Ruth of an age consistent with Ruth Hinshaw (Lee) Ellis. It is possible that perhaps Mordecai might have remarried to a different Ruth (of the same age!), but it seems more likely that Ruth's death date was recorded in error in the Springfield MM records.25
