Ephraim is buried in the Ripperdan-Sonner Cemetery in Harrison Co., Ind.
His children are given by Keith who credits a grandson with the list.
That list also contains Affie, Samuel, Wade, and both John and
Wesley. (Note I've got a John Wesley Briles as Ephraim's son.)
Ephraim's third wife, Mary Mingles, was the widow of George Mingles, the
only Mingles in Harrison Co. Their daughter Jane married William P.T.
Briles, Ephraim's son.
Also note the extremely large family in the 1840 census. Mary Mingles
brought four daughters and a son (based on Harrison Co. marriages involving
Mingles).
