Thanks for posting this photo of Elizabeth Comer. I am pretty sure that this is the gravestone of Elizabeth J. Swaim, first wife of Malachi Prevo Comer. She was born 3 May 1844 in North Carolina and died in Jasper County 14 Jul 1879. This matches the information you have for her age of 35 years, 2 months and 11 days.
Malachi remarried in 1882 and is buried with his second wife Mary Jane Tallman Garriott in Dunkard Cemetery in Barkley Township, Jasper County. I noted that you had posted both of those also.
