Abigail is buried in the Carney Family Plot area in Rochester Cemetery. Her gravestone is a small flat gray granite monument which reads "Eunice A., 1856 - 1949". I do not know if the engraver made a mistake on her name or if she preferred to be called by her middle name, or if Eunice was actually her first name.
