The cemetery is still owned by the I.O.O.F. and is located just south of the Town of Forestville. Grave 1 Elizabeth Davis 1865-1953 Grave 2 Charles Davis 1854-1939 Grave 3 Joseph W. Davis 1849-1899 Grave 4 Rebecca Davis 1826-1918? Grave 5 Levi Davis 1822-1905? Also buried in this plot are Thomas and Lydia Linton. The record has no additional information. There are also Davis burials in plot 83. There are no records of anyone named Jack. This database was created by local volunteers and is as complete and current as their efforts can make it. For an obituary you could request the Sonoma Democrat [newspaper] for June 1887 through Inter-Library Loan (ILL) at your local library. The microfilm will be sent and you can search it for an obit.

Because of when she died, you might need to contact the California State Library, library.ca.gov/calhist/genealogy.html . They don't have resources to look up obituaries, however, will send you a list of researchers who will. You might want to contact the Sonoma County Genealogical Society, scgs.org/scgs.html to find out what sources they have. I did find the following: In 1860 Rebecca and family were living in Montague, Texas. Andrew jack, b. Eenbow, Scotland, 42, farmer. Rebecca, wife, b. KY, 60. Isaac Howard, b. MO, 16, farmer. Lucinda Hackler, b. TN, 16. On 31 Aug 1865 Andrew and Rebecca were living in Eudora, Douglas, Kansas with the james Whalen family. Andrew Jack, b. Scotland, 46, farmer Rebecca, b. KY, 65.
