Biographical History
Elizabeth Bonduel McCourt Doe Tabor was born Elizabeth Nellis McCourt to Peter McCourt and Elizabeth Nellis in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, in 1854. She married Harvey Doe, Jr. on June 27, 1877. Harvey's father had a half interest in a mine in Central City, Colorado, and the couple moved there hoping to make a living. While working in the mine, Elizabeth Tabor earned the nickname "Baby Doe" from the miners. In 1879, she became involved with H.A.W. Tabor and moved to Leadville, divorcing Harvey Doe in 1880. Tabor divorced his wife, Augusta, and married Elizabeth, the union becoming official in an elaborate Washington, D.C., wedding in 1883. The devaluation of silver in 1893 left them nearly destitute. Horace Tabor was appointed postmaster of Leadville by friends and died in 1899 of appendicitis. In 1903, Elizabeth Tabor moved to a shack next to the Matchless Mine in Leadville, Colorado, living there until her death in 1935
