    The big monument in the picture has 2nd wife Caroline Baggs on top, Edith on bottom. The first wife Dolly Ann Clapp is on a stone nearby, and apparently Julius and the first wife are also on the reverse side of the big monument.]

    [Note: this is indexed as Edith Mae by familysearch, but then it would be "Edi Mae". Instead, the th has been misread as an 'M', and curley-ques at the end of the given name and beginning of the surname have been misread as 'ae'. There is no middle name actually being listed. Also the surname is mis-indexed as Melondy but appears to pretty clearly be Melendy. It is indexed as Editha Melendy by Heritage Quest which is probably what it says.]
