Daughter of John Calvert and Mary Polly Mc Gurdy
Wife of Isaac Allred

From Paul Allred;
I contacted the Lehi city cemetery. They said her grave location is unknown, and may not even be at the new (since 1872) cemetery. The cemetery was located elsewhere until 1872 when they moved it to its current location. They attempted to move all graves to the new place, but they think there are some still at the old location, now a park (Pioneer Park). They told me it would have been up to the family to cover the expenses for relocating. No information for her location is known that they are aware of.

Cemetery notes and/or description:
The Daughters of the Utah Pioneers memorial states:

In February 1851, this plot of ground along the north side of State Road and west of Dry Creek was dedicated as a cemetery for the city of Lehi; when John Griggs White, aged 75 years, was buried, this land was government owned; later it was home-steaded by Thomas R. Jones, who deeded it to the city. In 1872 when the road was widened and the railroad cut through the cemetery, many bodies were moved to a new cemetery; yet several pioneers of this community still lie buried here.

Daughters of the Utah Pioneers have posted a plaque with Mary Calvert Allred's info on it if you want to update the cemetery I added a pic of her name on it.
