Rice, Sarah Elizabeth Scott

This stone may or may not be that of Sarah (Scott) Rice. She was the mother of Sarah Amy (Dellinger) Evans  and Frances "Lizzie" (Dellinger) Hill.  She was buried next to Amy, and that is where this stone was found. However, Amy's son Frank was also buried next to her and there is no stone, so this could be his.  She married Jacob Dellinger in St. Clair, Illinois in 1866.
