A little info on both:
3rd great aunt was Anne Jane "Annie" Kane. She was born around 1864 and died in 1890. Her family was said to have run a hack (horse & carriage) service back in N Ireland. Word has it that when the hacks went out, she would put her hair up in her hat and drive like any man. Family believe she came to US with family neighbor GEORGE MILLER. It was believed she never married, but that seems to have been speculated due to her age at her death. So unsure if she married a Smith shortly before she died, or if this was the other Annie.
4th great aunt was also Anne Jane "Annie" Kane. She was baptized in 1831 at St Luran's, Cookstown, County Tyrone, Northern Ireland. Little is known of this Annie, except that it seems she is alleged to have given birth to 2 children out of wedlock, with GEORGE MILLER. Could be that the 4 names on the headstone are actually an immediate family unit: Annie, her children and their father.
Note: George Miller was also the alleged father to a child of Eliza Kane, the latter Annie's sister.
