Per Molly & Stan Hearron, the stone in Riverside Cemetery, Hanibal, MO reads:
Clara wife of Stephen Emmerton died October 9, 1868 Aged 46 Ys 6 Wks 8 Days
A three line inscription is not legible, even when magnified several times. On the top of the stone sits a Bible with a ribbon marker coming out the bottom and beside the Bible is a single rose flower. It is almost unrecognizable and at first glance just looks like a bump in the stone.
They report that this is no stone for Stephen. He was interred 24 Aug. 1899, Sec C Lot 78.
Record also shows Deed 133, March 17, 1871, Sec C, Lot 78, 16 x 18 ft, purchaser, Stephen Emmerton.
The obelisk for Winnie has her name in capital letters in a semi-circle halfway down the stone. Other words are illegible.
