"The night that Nancy Moxley died of tuberculosis was during the Civil War, and there were no men present. Her sister Bettie (Elizabeth) and her nephew little Jeff Jones had to go about a half a mile through the woods by candlelight to a neighbor's house to get someone to come to her home."

Jeff Jones was born in June 1861. So for him to go through the woods at night he had to be at least 3 years old. So Nancy must have died in Fall 1864/Spring 1865.

Grave has no marker.
