Her gravestone must be a replacement because her death certificate give DOD as 7 Nov 1926. The death certificate shows she was to be buried in the Standish cemetery. Her son-in-law, Harold M. Von Stein, of Medora, IN, was the informant. I believe she was likely living with him or visiting at the time of her death. The death certificate showed she was widowed and her husband's name was Benjamin Holowell (Hollowell). The informant on the death certificate gave the birth date of 9 Oct 1849. That is different from the birth date on the gravestone of Catherine's twin, Cassius, that being 2 Nov 1849. He died at age 3. Because I believe the latter date is more likely to be correct, I am using that date.

They had 5 children. One died at birth and is buried here. The other died sometime before the 1900 Census (date of birth and place of birth unknown as they moved from Wash. Co.)
Essie J. was born in 1880, death unknown.
Elmer O. was born in 1882, death unknown.
Edna Ethal was born in 1890 and died 1974; married Harold McCabe Von Stein.
