This zinc monument is for Elizabeth Howard Fentress. I could not find other information than what is written on the monument There are a few Fentress in this sector of the cemetery, probably relatives.
The monument, like other zinc monuments, is not affected by erosion, invasive plants from moisture or other weathering process that often affect stone monuments. However, it seemingly has suffered from an accident. It has been displaced on its stone base and there is a part missing at its top. This wound has caused metal parts that were not zinc coated to rust and to stain the top area.
