101 - Emma I. Thompson - Sarcoxie, MO - Headstones of Centenarians on Waymarking.com

The FindAGrave entry for Emma has no biographical information, and none could be found with an extensive web search. She was married to John R. Thompson (1892-1974). Since even the month and day are not recorded for her birth and death, we can only say that she lived at least 101 years, and maybe 102 years.

The year that Emma was born, 1905, an automobile first reached 100 MPH, and the first fire lookout tower was put up in Maine.

The year that Emma died, 2007, the iPhone was invented, and the I-35 bridge over the Mississippi collapsed.

As usual, I have included contextual photos to help locate the headstone, in case there is difficulty with the GPSr satellite reception.
