    Thank you for that information, Ms. Weatherwax. Yes, she is definitely deserving of whatever respect can be given to her.

      The story of her funeral and burial is poignant, I think. And to have your place in history under a name that may only be an alias-- sad.

        Its possible that there are no bones, of course. However, I genuinely believe that it's worth a shot. In an ideal world, I'd love to see her reinterred in her own grave, with her real name on it. Whatever she had to hide in her lifetime can't really harm her now...I just think it would be fitting to give this woman her identity back.
