Person:Frances Jackson (25)

Dr. Anthony L. Troha writes that he has "obtained a photograph of the Mooney Family plot marker. On the side of the monument facing the cameraman is the following inscription:

Frances Elizabeth Jackson Wife of W. M. Mooney Born Rockaway, N.J. Oct. 24, 1842 Died Verona, N.J. Jan. 23, 1933

(these lines are all centered on the monument but cannot be centered in these notes. Also on this monument is carved the info on Walworth and his first wife, Frances' sister Caroline. That info is in their notes.)

Frances promised her older sister Caroline that she would marry Caroline's husband (Walworth Mooney) when Caroline was dying, thus ensuring that Caroline's children would be raised by her sister.
