Greetings...I am looking for Mary Elizabeth Hughes Oldham, Matilda Oldham Hughes & William Swan Hughes.  I have found information that says Mary died in Las Animas Colorado.  Mary & William were brother & sister and Matilda & Mary's husband were brother & sister..Mary's husband died in Port Gibson Mississippi.  Mary was born 1817 in Howard Co MO & married Leonidas Oldam I show she died  1884 in West Las Animas CO.  I can not find Matida & William's grave anywhere & am thinking they may have followed them to Colorado since they seemed to live by each other most of their lives.  Any informtion on this would be very helpful.   Thank you!  Email: Martha Thoman
