Deb - This info sounds familiar. Didn't someone else recently post info about the picture infront of the sundial? It has no relation to me, but someone here mentioned it not long ago. GOOD LUCK!!!

[You can see her at this monument on the web at: http://www.dm.net/~deb/pix/Mrs_Conoly.jpg if you would like!] My grandfather later noted on the picture that her "other husband's name" was Conley. (Yup, two spellings) No, we don't know when her first husband passed away and when she remarried. There are no CONLEY/CONLY (and several other spellings...) grooms in Tulare County through 1909 with a bride named Catherine, let alone with a surname of Atwood. >>
