IOOF - Stillborn - P. Edmiston [sic?]; NOTE: Believe this to be infant of Mollie Coleman and her husband Philip Edminster. Mollie is the grandaughter of Zarilda Jackson and John Feguson Miller, and the great-grandaughter of Ursula Oldham and Hancock Lee Jackson, who are buried in the same lot. The inscription reads "Our Babies/P.M.E. & M.C.E" . It is difficult to tell if the M.C.E. is that or M. G. E. If it is M.C.E., the intitials could very well reference the parents names (Philip Marvin Edminster and Mollie Coleman Edminster) rather than the names of the infants. Two infant children, 1 male and 1 female, are reported to have been born to Mollie & Philip in 1907 and 1908 respectively, in California. (See: Ancestry.com submission for Philip Edminster). Still need confirmation that these "babies" are the same two children, who may have been brought to Salem to be buried in the family plot.
