"MISS DELLA MAY BAKER IS DEAD // Miss Della May BAKER, the 34-year-old daughter of Mr. Elisha H. BAKER, died yesterday morning at 8:30 o'clock, after an illness of two weeks, at the family residence at Summerville, Ala. // She is survived by her mother and two sisters, Misses Mara Lou and Wessie. // She was a consistent member of the Methodist church and a noble woman, and was known to a large circle of friends who mourn her passing with aching hearts and the feeling that one who was dear has gone. // The funeral will take place this morning at 10:30 o'clock from the residence. The Rev. Mr. REINHART will officiate and interment will be made in Pine Grove cemetery."

[Columbus (GA) Enquirer-Sun newspaper, Tuesday, 14 JUL 1908, p. 6.]

Note unknown BAKER, memorial #27112043 may be Della's location, as Della's gravestone has not yet been found. However, a stronger possibility is the two unmarked graves beside Della's mother Alice Baker, would logically be Alice's daughter Della, and Alice's husband Elisha Baker, both of whom predeceased Alice and have not yet been found.
