I show the following: Cress Hill Cem., Hillsboro, IL Anna H. Mette, born 12/29/1856 - 03/31/1910, nee: Brandes William S. Metty, born 04/03/1844 - 07/12/1906 The MCGS does not have all of the Butler Grove Twp cemeteries reread at this time. I didn't find these names in Mr. Sanders readings, tho. Hope this helps some.
