I went out to the Lincoln Cemetery. Noble is in a space that holds 2 graves. Even though there is no stone, I was told by the Lincoln District Office that Emily Purdy Johnson is probably buried beside Noble in Lot 5A, #8. It is owned by him. The 2 spaces that are to the east of Noble's grave and to the north of Celia Nicora Johnson are also owned by the Johnsons. There are no headstones on those 2 graves. I did not know they were owned by the Johnsons until I got out there and saw the map.

I too have contacted Peter Barmettler, the head of Placer County cemeteries about Emily Johnson. I have only found Emaline, which there is a memorial for.

In my last correspondence with him regarding this, his reply was:

"I don't have Emily Johnson on record as being buried in our District. Emaline Johnson is the closest sounding name I can find."

Death Notice:
Pleasant Grove, November 17-Emily Johnson, 76 years.

There is no record of Emily PURDY JOHNSON being buried here next to her husband but cemetery records are not always correct or complete and I believe she is buried next to her spouse.
