  	Pheriba's first husband, Joseph French, and their children Nona and William are buried in the Goshen Cemetery. Since Pheriba's death certificate says she was buried there, but there is no listing for a Pheriba Neely (her second husband's name) this raises the question, "Is Pheriba buried with her first husband and her children?"
