Stone reads:
daughter of J. and M.A. Eveland
"all must die"

This infants name was very difficult to read. From the Bible, Sephora was the wife of Moses and Sephoria was where the Virgin Mary spent her childhood. I suspect this name is a version of those Biblical references.

Sephronia is one of 6 children of John and Mary A. Eveland who died as babies. She was the first to pass away, in 1851.

Her father passed in 1872 and is buried next to her. Also in that row are John Eveland's 2nd wife Mary Ellen their son John G Eveland, and 2 of Mary Ellens children by previous marriages.

Her mother Mary Amanda Eveland and the other 5 children are buried in the row in front of them.
