1864-1895
Wife of Henry B. Gifford
This apparently is a memorial marker for one individual, and probably two, that were buried elsewhere. The remarks "buried Boydsville, AR" is under the side of the gravestone with Henry B. Gifford's name and data so it definitely clear that he was buried in the Clay County town of Boydsville. The remark probably refers to Martha Susan Maddux Gifford also because she is shown as having died in 1895, yet she was not listed among the ones whose graves were moved from one of the old cemeteries that were about to be covered by the Bull Shoals Reservoir. In the Corps of Engineer records, the plot number 47 was shown as being reserved for future burials.
