It's very possible I misread it, I was fiddling on google and found a very old forum post on a website and it was noted as 5 1/2, the little plot diagram on findagrave has a note about trying to locate Frances. I wonder if the two are connected and it's an old conversation via email or something. I'd have to try my browsing history to find it.

I'm starting to wilt a bit now and getting tired, the evening heart meds don't agree me so I'm calling it quits for a bit before I fall asleep mid post

Now I see why you mentioned the layout with the Philips family graves alongside the Chambers and Allen burials.  Rather confusing as the dates on the memorial Sarah A Philips memorial 1864-1928 are exactly right for Sarah Ann Christ nee Northage

In Sarah's probate record, she mentions a sister, Elizabeth Makin. She died in 1933.

Unlike her siblings, she is buried in Oakwood Cemetery. Also, the Find A Grave record has the wrong death year. It should be 1933, not 1935
