Narcissa was the wife of John Arnett, a Union soldier during the Civil War. She moved with her husband to California after the war to escape all the aftermath. They were one of the original settlers in the town of Livermore.
She died Jan 30 1877, aged 40 yrs.
Ironically, Narcissa had three brothers who also served in the Civil War -- on the Confederate side.! Two of the three were captured by the Union and sent to prison. Carroll B. Inman, CSA, died in the prison at Alton, Illinois and James H. Inman, CSA, died in the Gratiot Street prison in St. Louis, just down river from Alton. Carroll was buried in a mass grave, the Confederate Cemetery, just outside of Alton and James was buried in Jefferson Barracks National Cemetery, south of St. Louis.
In addition, Narcissa’s sister Malinda Inman’s first husband, Joseph Sutton, CSA, died in Pitman’s Ferry, Arkansas, from wounds he received in a battle.

Inscription
Dear Husband and Children, do not mourn
for I have gone to my long home,
Prepare for death, do not delay
Short time on earth yours to stay.
