Long Description:

County of statue & cross: Lincoln County
Location of statue & cross: MO-79 - Star Hope Baptist Church Cemetery, S. of Elsberry

The cross and angle is a family plot marker, with just the name: McMahill. The odd thing is on the Find-A-Grave listing for this cemetery, the McMahill's are listed as being buried here, but none of the individual listings show this family plot marker.
Wish I took pictures of the adjoining stones.

The angel is life size, about 5'5", and the cross over 10' Nothing on the back.
I do not know artist of date of erection.

She is standing in front of a plain Christian cross, bare feet, and wearing a ancient Greek style clothing. Her proper left hand is open upon her breast, and her proper right hand is resting on a walking stick.
