Bertie Crawford Gedney was the daughter of John Wesley Crawford and Kisiah McCollum Crawford -- who are also buried in Reformation Cemetery in Leake County. I suspect that she was born 31 Oct 1895, not 1896. Her SSDI entry lists her birth year as 1895... but I see that the birth year on her marker is 1896.

Her husband was William Raymond Gedney of Richland County Ohio. He died in 1940 and is buried in Mount Hope Cemetery in Richland County, Ohio. They had one son together, Ray Gedney, who lived for only a day, 9 Aug 1934.

Family history passed down through the Gedney line indicates that Bertie was a saint of a woman. Though I never knew her, she will be remembered. My great-grandmother was Ray Gedney's sister, Bertha Gedney Fritz.
