Alice was born in 1865, the year that the U. S. Civil War ended (at least to most Americans...). Her grave marker is sinking deeper and deeper into the ground. Fortunately, the cemetery itself keeps very accurate records in the office near the entrance, which record where every grave is located. I had to use my trusty pocket knife to cut a lot of sod from around the marker just to make it as visible as it is in the accompanying photos. I did not want to attack the marker more without permission from the cemetery superintendent. Her name, birth, and death years are visible enough through human eyes, even though they do not show up very well in photos.

Alice died in 1966 at 100 or 101 years old. This was the first year of the popular TV series Star Trek (the original series).
