From Susan:
Their suggestion:
-------------------------
This grave is of Adelia (Lyon) Tidmarsh. she was the 2nd wife of William Tidmarsh (b. 1832 and d. 1920). if you look closely at the top you can see "Adelia" in the banner, so i'm sure it says "wife of", but is worn.
Adelia was b. abt 1839 Covert, Seneca Co., NY and d. 9 Sep 1861 Fremont, Lake Co., IL of typhoid fever. she was the daughter of Robert and Arzillah (Hall) Lyon. she and Wm had 1 child, Emma Tidmarsh.
