Anna M. Downing
Wife of Floyd C. Downing
Apr. 8, 1889
July 20, 1915
In Loving Remembrance
This Women of Woodcraft marker is one of several Woodcraft markers found at Wisner Cemetery in northern Linn County. Given that it is 100 years old, this marker is in nice shape and the Woodman emblem, with the phrase "Courage, Hope, Remembrance" is clearly legible at the top of the marker. Nearby, husband Floyd's marker is present - it features an I.O.O.F. (Odd Fellows) emblem and notes that he was a World War I vet. Anna was only 26 years old when she died; Floyd outlived his wife by 47 years.
