The following bio contributed by B. L. Miller:
Almira, who was a twin sister to Alvira, was the daughter of Albert Gove and Nancy Tuttle, who are also buried in this extended family plot. She was married to Warren D. Fogg but I did not find a memorial for him on Find A Grave.

A quick look at records on Ancestry gives us :

1860 - living in Seabrook NH with her parents : Albert Gove 37 a farmer, Nancy B Gove 35. She is listed as Almira M Gove 3 born about 1857 in NH. Siblings : Alvin 16 born about 1844 a laborer, Charles R 13 born about 1847 in NH, George L 10 born about 1850 in NH, Vienna R 6 born about 1854 in NH, Alvira F 3 born about 1857 in NH (this is Almira's twin sister).

1870 - living in Wenham MA in the household of Thomas P and Harriett Pingree, she is working as a domestic servant, she is listed as Almira Gove 13 born in Seabrook NH (unusual for a census to indicate town and state of birth).

Note : One of the two following records must have an incorrect date as she is listed as giving birth before she was married.

(1) 1873 - 31 Mar 1873 - NH Birth records list the birth of her son David W(arren) Fogg in Seabrook NH. Parents : Warren D Fogg, Elmira F Gove.

(2) 1874 - NH marriage records list her marriage to Warren D Fogg in Seabrook NH. She is listed as Almira A Gove 16. He is listed as 23 born about 1851.

1878 - 6 Feb 1878 - NH Birth records list the birth of her daughter Nancy B Fogg in Seabrook NH, parents : Warren D Fogg shoemaker born in Seabrook NH, Almira Fogg born Seabrook NH. Data indicates this was Almira's second child.

1878 - 29 Mar 1878 - NH Death records list her death (Almira Fogg) in Seabrook NH of inflammation of the bowels. She was 21 yrs and 10 months old giving us an approximate DOB of June 1856. Data indicates she was born in Seabrook NH, she was married but no husband is listed. Parents : Albert Gove born Seabrook NH, Nancy B Gove born Stafford NH.

Given the closeness in her DOD and her daughter's birth, I assume Almira died of childbirth complications.

Warren D Fogg - I found Warren in the 1880 census, living in Seabrook NH with a wife Ann M Fogg, 22. Two children listed : David 7 and Maria 2. Obviously Ann would have been 15 at the time of David's birth so she is NOT these children's birth mother, unless Almira's daughter Nancy died and Ann got married and gave birth to Maria all in 1878, not impossible.

It appears that Warren and Ann / Annie moved to Newburyport MA (1900 and 1910 census) and a quick search produced a death record for him : 12 March 1912 in Newburyport MA, parents : David Fogg, Jane Chase.
