  Mary Catherine "Polly" Horton Montgomery
  Birth Mar 13, 1828 St. Francois County, Missouri
  Death May 4, 1860 St. Francois County, Missouri
  
  I searched FAG for anyone named Montgomery that died in Missouri 1860, no matches.  I googled Elvins MO Cemetery and came up with Hamilton Cemetery.  From what I can tell, Hamilton Cemetery is off of Elvins St/Rd.
