Photo caption:

"Elizabeth King's grave was most likely in the center of the photo, where the two trees are now growing. Her husband's grave is nearby."

Note: A subsequent cemetery visit in 2012 reportedly revealed her stone under the forest mulch. The stone was set upright and leaned against a tree next to the grave of Samuel King.
