Elizabeth is buried in the Strader Hill Cemetery, which is located on the family farm in Ross County, Ohio on a hill overlooking the village of Austin. Her sandstone grave marker is worn smooth, but slight impressions had the appearance of her age being 87, d. 1837 in 1976. (The source of this paragraph is p. 17 of a document written in 1976 by an unknown (to this webmaster) author and posted on ancestry.com byTurner_Rebecca08 on 20 July 2015.)[Note: if Elizabeth died in 1837 and she was 87 that year, then her birth year would have been 1750 as stated on the Find a Grave site for Christopher Strader and not 1748 as in "Descendants of Hans Wilhelm Strader" by Don Norman.)
