Quote from Newton's Journal:

"Almira Jane Todd wife of N.S. Todd was born March 16th 1856 in Marion Co. 
Oregon. Diek in Steilacoom W.T. January 24th 1883 of inflamation of the 
stomache and liver.....My dear wife is burried in gravely Lake Cemetery 
three miles East from Steilacoom, Pierce Co. Wathington Territory and our 
little boy sleeps near her
===========================================================================
My source is my Great Grandfather's journal which I have and is in the 
Oregon Archives also.
His name is Newton S. Todd and was married to Almira J. Norton (born in 
Marion County, Oregon on March 16th, 1856) on November 28, 1877 and she 
died in Steilacoom, Washington Territory on January 24, 1883.

She was probably marked with a wooden cross as they didn't have much money.
She was my great grandmother.
