Originally buried at Tabernacle Church Grounds, aka Seventh Presbyterian Church she and her son Stephen were moved to Monument Cemetery in 1846 to a plot purchased by Otis Ammidon. Name at Monument was spelled Ammerdon. They were all subsequently moved to Lawnview Cemetery in 1956 to the Susquehanna Section to a comingled grave (see memorial 224300557). This section was for people who had no relatives to contact so there are no tombstones there.
