Inscription

Sarah C. White 1855 - 1938. NOTE: It appears the marker may have been placed some years after her death since both the birth and death years do not match other documents. The 1900 Census records her birth as September 30, 1854 which matches the date listed in her obituary. The obituary notes her death as May 19, 1939.
