Today’s
post on the Old Alms House Cemetery features Mrs. Anna B. Flint. Her stone
supposedly states (per Find A Grave) only that she died February 19, 1972, and was the wife of “A. Flint.” I
believe this transcription may be in error, as her stone seems to say “1853” or “1873.” (This
would be more logical considering most of the dates in the cemetery).Though
straw obscures part of the inscription, it appears she was in her 30s when she
died. Anna is likely related to Edward Alex Flint, age 2, who is also buried at
this cemetery.
