Mr. Frank Adams and Mr. & Mrs. F.A. Couraud desire to return thanks to the friends who so kindly aided them in their recent bereavement by the death of Mrs. Frank Adams.
Larry Pace photographed Matilda's grave marker and it reads:
"Matilda Wife of B.F.H Adams Died May 14, 1892 Aged 20 years"
The large marble white stone marker is about four feet tall, with the top area inscribed with flowers and a bell. The top was broken off and missing (1980's?) At the bottom of the large stone it read "Made by N.Niblo Olney, Ohio" The grave marker is located south of the Hoffman Plot, south of center east to west road. There are two plots just to the south of this grave that are covered at one end with rocks. One of those graves is Matilda's father Francois Couraud who died after Matilda in 1897. Ruth Couraud Mattsen and her husband Richard placed concrete flat head stones on his grave and Suzeena Richards Guionneau. They etched their names in the concrete, a welcome and generous act, authorized by the cemetery and historical society.
