She is buried along with her daughter, Jane, on what was once the Ray home place, north of Emmaus Primitive Baptist Church, which is now Flat Creek Baptist Church.

The graves were once surrounded by a wrought iron fence but the owner of the property now, thought the enclosure was a holding pen for pigs, it was torn down and thrown away in 1979.

The source of this information was Donald Ray, son of Joe "Buster" Ray, who was a son of Josiah Ray, a son of Hiram Ray.

On March 13, 2015 talked to the current owner of the property, the one responsible for ripping up the wrought iron fence enclosure and found the TRUE location of the grave site, which is located in front of this large pecan tree.
