Wife of R. Vollentine inscribed on stone. She is buried in a plot covered with a concrete slab, except for the only other headstone in it is Andrew J. Rickard. I do not know what relation she and Andrew Rickard are. No one seems to have noticed the inscription that is partially sunk in the concrete, but I will try to decipher it.
"A loving wife; a mother dear, a faithful friend lies buried here"
This information after the colon is from cemetery records: Wife of R.Vollentine, Aged 79 (77) Y, 10 M, 19 D. I don't know why they said 77 in there; the 79 years seems pretty clear on the stone. Maiden name appears to have been Kepley.
Between the rows of asterisks is suggested information by FindAGrave user Barbara T. I will place some of it in the proper boxes and as I can, I will intersperse it with what I already have.
