The limestone tombstone of her husband simply bears the initials G.T. Her tombstone, next to his, is just a mere stub of limestone with no discernable markings.

PLEASE NOTE: Contrary to countless entries on the web (including Find A Grave) and in old genealogies, Catherine and her husband, Garret Stephense Terhune, are NOT buried at Oakland Cemetery in Mercer Co., KY.
SEE: Find A Grave Memorial# 64712965 for photos.

The fact is: only a Memorial Plaque was erected there by her great-grandsons about 90 years later.
