Unfortunately no I don't have the inscription. A cousin was passing thru the area and saw what was happening. He spoke with the person doing the work and they explained to him that it was considered an abandoned cemetery and would be plowed under to develop a housing complex. My cousin had been in the cemetery numerous times to view the St. Clair grave; I do not know if he has a copy of the words. When he calls again, I'll try to remember to ask. Data he gave me was: Elizabeth A. Miller; born 02-18-1839; died 1876. Elizabeth St. Clair married S. E. Miller S. E. Miller was son of Robert H. Miller. I do not know how Elizabeth is related to my great grandfather whose family cemetery is near Oak Bend cemetery in Ozark
