According to her obituary, she was buried in the family burial grounds, which would be referring to her husband's family burial grounds, the John Rains Cemetery on Nolensville Pike. The Nolen family in the Nolensville area did not have a family burial grounds until much later, and her sister Martha's burial records clearly state she is buried in the John Rains Cemetery on Nolensville Pike. Her grave was either unmarked there or her tombstone was missing and she may or may not have been moved in 2017 to Mount Olivet Cemetery when the rest of the members of the John Rains Cemetery were moved to Mount Olivet. If her unmarked grave wasn't moved, then her remains currently lie under a pavement parking lot at 5510 Nolensville Pike, Nashville.
