Margaret's husband, Obadiah "Tobe" Alford, who died in 1940 is listed on Findagrave as being buried in Vernledge. His wife, Margaret Jane Barfoot Alford, who died in 1919 was not listed and I don't understand why, unless her grave is unmarked. According to her death certificate she was buried in Vernledge 21 May 1919.

Margaret Jane Barfoot Alford was the daughter of Leander and Corinthia Argin Anderson Barfoot. Margaret and Obadiah were married 20 Dec 1894 and had eight children.

I don't know why Margaret's name appears in bold lettering on the cemetery list of graves.
