Gertrude was the second child and daughter of Harry C. Boatner, born in Louisiana, and Carrie Ann Eaton born in Massachusetts. She was the little sister of James William Boatner who was born in Dallas, Texas in 1884. He died in Ft. Worth Texas in 1965. It is believed that Gertrude and her mother both died soon afterward due to complications during the birth. Gertrude's and her mother's grave are likely the oldest ones in this family plot. Gertrude and her mother Carrie Ann Eaton Boatner are the only two persons [out of seven or eight] buried in this plot with a marked grave. They share a grave marker which may have been carved by her father who was a stone cutter in Dallas, Texas at the time.
