Per Cemetery book by Barbara Hickey-Sims; Cemeteries of Daviess County, IN: Imo Edmondson Ellis died about 1929. She has an unmarked grave. She was the wife of Clark Ellis.
UNMARKED GRAVE... Died in the fall of 1929. She was about 19 years old and wife of Clark Ellis. Daughter of Dee & Muriel Edmondson.

UPDATE: From Camilla Ellis Sempsrott, (a family member):
Imo Edmondson married William Ellis on Dec. 24, 1928. Although cemetery records show that her husband's name is Clark, it further lists William's siblings as Peg, Peter, Jane, and Elizabeth Ellis. (These were my grandfather's siblings). There was nobody named Clark Ellis in my family. Imo Ellis died during childbirth; their son did not survive. Imo's father owned a grocery store in Elnora and he is also buried at Fairview Cemetery.

From: Darlene -- So far, I have not found a grave for William Ellis in the Fairview Cemetery in Elnora, but will keep looking and update as needed.

UPDATE: William Ellis #16843991 is Imo Edmondson Ellis's husband. He is buried in Dugger Cemetery. His name was NOT Clark. Imo's parents were: Jobe Dee Edmondson and Lettie Merlie Beck Edmondson.
