Mary Jane Wilson's headstone exists at North Platte Cemetery, Lincoln
County, Nebraska next to her husbands (James D. Wilson) with no death
date.
However, according to A. R. Adamson, author of "The Cemetery on
Decoration Day". written in The North Platte Semi-Weekly Tribune
on Jun 4, 1909 (posted on the USGenWeb Archives) she is not
buried here. "From an inscription, giving the date of Mrs. Wilson's
birth, "and a blank space for that of her death, it seems they
intended to lie side by side, but fate ordained otherwise, for she
died at Chicago, and fills a nameless grave in some cemetery".
Inscription reads 
"Mary Jane Wilson born in County Down Ireland June 8, 1826"
