Find A Grave Memorial #119374484 records have Frances buried here [Fairmount Cemetery in Davenport, Iowa] but there is a marker with her name on it at her husband Martin's plot in Indiana: Memorial# 24991543. Since the Marker here has both Frances' and Martin's names with no terminal date completed and son David's name complete; I believe she is probably buried with her husband in Indiana. I'm leaving this memorial so that anyone finding the marker here in Iowa will be able to trace the family properly. [T. Walden]
