Buried beside her sister, Amanda Kemp Tate.

Henderson Co., Marriage records indicate that her parents were Chilion & Mary Ann [Jones] Kemp, and her age at the time of marriage was 22 years,and this was her first marriage to I. Ellis, and her husband was 35 years, and this was his second marriage.Buried next to her sister, Amanda E. Tate in the Oquawka Il. Cemetery.

Eldest sons tombstone indicates that his parents were married before 21-SEP-1891 when he was born. Nat'l Archives:
In pension records there are the following personal affidavits signed: Virginia A. Shull, age 62, 25-Nov-1909 Hen. Co., Il.; Jesse L. Tate, age 69, 25-Nov-1909 Hen. Co., Il.; Marietta Trimmer, age 70, 29-Nov-1909 Hen. Co.,Il.; Mary Cooper, age 53, 23-Oct-1909 Hen. Co., Il.; Amanda E. Tate, age 47, 23-Oct-1909 Hen. Co., Il; James B. Lant, age 68, 3-Nov-1909, Hen. Co., Il.; James P. Wilt, age 63, 10-Nov-1909, Lancaster, Oh.; Lucy A. Flemming, age 51, 10-Nov-1909, Lancaster, Oh., and Philip Shull, age 67, 5-Jan-1889, Hen. Co., Il.The plot in which she is buried has the letter 'L' on all four corners, encompassing about 8 graves, 2 of which are her and her sister. Inside the 'L's is a stone with the last name of 'Lox'. I would guess they might have had a sister who married a 'Lox' but I haven't found anything to support this theory.
