Mary Gladys was born Dec 28, 1913 and died Dec.4 1918 when a flu epidemic was going around 
killing thousands of people.  She was buried in Maury County then after her family moved
 to Nashville and her father became a stone carver for Spring Hill Cemetery and was part owner 
in J. W. Hunts Monument Co, they had her body moved to Spring Hill Cemetery.  
There was a beautiful angel on her marker that Robert Edw carved but someone stole it.

Note from Linda, (who provided all these photos and information)

This is a photo of Robert Edw. when he was part owner of the Hunt Monument Co. I was also told he did the stone carving on the War Memorial Building in downtown Nashville. It's right down in front of the Capitol. He also did the stone carving on the Old Hickory Bridge and Spring Hill Cemetery entrance. This picture is over 50 years old as he died in 1945. He is the one on the right.
(note by Dianna....re: "part owner"....on the building sign, R.E. Tyler is the only name shown, possibly indicating him as the sole owner?? at some point in time?)
