Is Ophelia buried in Rose Hill Cemetery, Macon, Bibb Co, Georgia? Her 2nd husband, Hilliard J. Cherry is buried there along with his first wife, Martha W. Wright. I don't find a listing for Ophelia.

There could be a connection to the Cherry family prior to Ophelia marrying Hilliard. Joseph Cherry and Martha Jane McClendon were married on 21 August 1857 in Bibb Co, Georgia.
