Below: Catharine's tombstone at St. Paul's Lutheran Church Cemetery, Alamance County, North Carolina. (GPS: 36° 1.396 minutes N, 79° 28.689 minutes W). These photographs were taken on 30 September 2005. In the photograph on the right, the tombstone was "chalked" to make the stone easier to read. When found, the top of Catharine's stone was broken off and face down in the earth. After the photo was taken, the top was leaned against the base and a letter was written to the cemetery to find out about having the stone repaired.

The stone reads:
