Angeletta's burial place is unknown, but there is a very high probability that she is buried next to her husband in the Red Hill Cenetery at Arjay, KY. There is a field stone adjacent that must mark her grave.
Angeletta gives the census taker ages that are all over the map. The corresponding birth years in the 1850 thru 1910 census are 1839, 1835, 1844, 1842, 1842, 1842 respectively. She gives the age of 20 at her marriage 1-20-1859 (b 1839). A death certificate for Angeletta has not been found, nor has a tombstone. She is in the 1910 census, but not the 1920 census. Phone conversations with her descendants point to a death year of 1915.
