Per her obituary in the Mountain Democrat of 18 Mar 1922, there would be "cremation at Mt. Oliver Crematorium on 20 Feb 1922" and that the ashes of husband had been brought to Placerville recently, as would Mrs. Boles' ashes. (Thanks to Suzi Mickus for this information./ss)

Caroline Smith and Emery Allison (E. A.) Boles, Sr. were married in Lafayette County, Wisconsin on November 26, 1874. The couple returned to Genoa, Douglas County, Nevada where they met and set up their household near Caroline's brother, Dr. Hiram Watson Smith who had earlier settled there.
The Boles were enumerated in Genoa, Nevada on the 1880 census as was a one year old son, listed as "Ernest", although he almost certainly was son Emery Allison Boles, Jr., who was born in Nevada in 1879.
The Boles family remained at Genoa until around the year 1884 when they resettled in Placerville, El Dorado County on a residential property adjacent to the then Union Cemetery created by the various Fraternal organizations in Placerville. In 1886 the couple lost two young daughters, Carrie and Lottie Alameda. A third child is indicated on a gravestone found in the small Boles Family Cemetery plot that was likely placed by their brother, Emery Allison Boles, Jr. before his death in 1949, but the identity of that child is not yet known.
On the 1900 and 1910 census, Caroline indicated that she'd given birth to 9 children but that only 2 of those children were then living. They were son Emery Allison Boles, Jr. and Ethel L. Boles Allen. Little Carrie and Lottie brought the total of known Boles' children to four, leaving the names and ages and places of death of the five remaining Boles children yet unknown, only one of which is referenced by the gravestone later erected in the largely unmarked Boles Family Cemetery.
Following Caroline Smith Boles' death in 1922, her cremated remains and that of her husband, Emery Allison Boles, Sr. were buried in the little family cemetery by either their surviving son Emery or daughter, Ethel.
