  • There may be a memorial marker for Betty located in Meredith Risner Cemetery/Magoffin County, Kentucky, USA Profile page for Betty W Risner (1832-191?) at FindAGrave. Note: Not an original marker photograph, it is a 'collage' of pictures that may not actually be all in the cemetery, but could have been created online as a marker image and screenshot pasted to FindAGrave as I have seen this before on this site, rendering it unreliable. Needs to have an actual 'in cemetery' photograph.
