Lucy M Nash was the second wife of Robert Moses (R. M.) Woodruff. Her elder sister, Eugenia Charlotte Nash, was his first wife.
The inscription on the gravestone stating she was 18 years old is incorrect. Lucy was born about 1854 and was older than her sister Eugenia Charlotte. Robert Moses Woodruff's obituary states that Lucy died in 1897 rather than 1894. There is no other documentation at this time to know which date is correct.
Lucy and Charlotte are both buried in Jones Cemetery along with their parents - J J N Nash and Mary Baker Nash.
