  Headstones

  Note: Because her headstone is broken and aging, hopefully someone will personally inspect it, clean it, cut back the encroaching vegetation and take good resolution photos of it with proper lighting and do a careful and accurate interpretation of the entire inscription and post them to Findagrave.com thereby preserving it for future generations.

• Notes

  Henry has a daughter named Kathryn Cora Epperson-Woodworth. Perhaps she was named in honor of her father's mother. If so, it would seem to validate 'Kathryn' as the proper birth name and spelling of Henry's mother's name. She was commonly known as Catherine which could be a nickname.
