Elizabeth Battist

I have included a photo of the wedding dress that John DePauw's wife
wore when they were married in Lincoln Co. in 1805 and a photo of a painting
of John's wife Elizabeth Battist that was painted in Kentucky, probably Lincoln Co. c.1805.

Elizabeth Battise wore this gown when she married John DePauw in Lincoln Co. in 1805. 
She wore black for the wedding and was buried wearing white. 

Dress in the Wash. Co., Ind. Hist. Soc., Salem.
