These are 3 of the children of PVT John T Guthrie and Elizabeth Jane Moore; they are buried in the same cemetery as their maternal grandfather John Moore #54107884

This family is on the 1860 Northern Subdivision, Giles Co., TN census, living in the household of Elizabeth's father John Moore:

Elizabeth J Guthrie 30 IN
Mary L Guthrie 9 TN
John F M Guthrie 2 TN
NOTE the 7-year gap between the births of their 2 children . . . maybe as many as 2 other children (born before 1858) died young in Giles Co., TN before the 1860 census

PVT John T Guthrie was captured at Lawrenceburg, TN and died as a Confederate Prisoner of War at Camp Morton, Indianapolis, Marion Co., IN

John and Elizabeth’s only surviving child (Mary C Guthrie) married Samuel C Smith on 22 Nov 1868 in Lawrence Co., TN [source: Tennessee, Marriages, 1851-1900]
