Please note that the date of birth recorded on Cecily's death certificate is not in agreement with the date of birth that she reported on her application for U.S. citizenship or with the date of birth recorded on her UK birth record. The nativity information that was recorded on her birth record has been listed for this memorial.

Thank you to Rebecca McCartney (#49754453) for visiting the cemetery to locate Cecily's grave and take a photograph. She reported that Cecily only has a concrete marker, and there is not an engraved headstone present. She was able to locate and uncover the concrete marker for a photograph. However, the cemetery staff stated that they do not typically leave concrete markers uncovered so as to minimize deterioration.
