Tombstone Tuesday

Charles Henry Clark and Mary Elizabeth Durbin Clark.  They are buried at the St. Bonaventure Catholic Cemetery located in Saint Elmo, Fayette County, Illinois.  My father fondly remembers his Grandma Mary.  He said she always wore boots and played with all of her grandchildren, chasing them around the yard.  Mary Elizabeth Durbin was older than her husband Charles Henry Clark.  They married when Charles was 18 and Elizabeth was 26, a first marriage for both.   A topic suggested by  Geneabloggers  for a daily blogging theme for Tuesday's.
