Ada Grace Catron's 1966 book, Tombstone Inscriptions of Lee County, Virginia, p. 68, lists the following burial under "Barker Cemetery, Poor Valley."—
Emline, dau. of Charles
and Catherine Barker
October 19, 1802
October 19, 1802
June 8, 1881
The birth year, listed twice in the text by typist error, was probably a mistranscription of 1862, for Emaline was 17 years of age in the census of 1880.
While I am not certain, I believe the headstone shown above to be Emaline's. It is near her father and bears a faint hand-scrawled inscription which I was not able to make out. The stone has fallen over, broken, and become embedded in the earth.
