I do not have documentation specifically stating she is buried here. (Unmarked) The death certificate states "Moscow Mills" and there wouldn't be any reason Gran (Carrie) wouldn't have buried her little daughter with her husband (who died only a few years earlier) and his mother. I would welcome any evidence for or against.

The cause of death is listed as influenza, but my father has always been told that Evelyn was kicked in the head by a horse at her Aunt Sabra's house. It's always possible that the accident occurred, then she came down with the flu and in the mind of my grandmother who was just a little girl, it was more about the accident than the virus. Either way, she lost her little life far too soon.
