Headstone at Moorland General Cemetery, photographed by Ray Cork for the Australian Cemeteries Index (inscription 6427420); photograph uploaded and read this session. Age 62 in April 1922 matches the 1860 birth registration. The stone does not name her parents; the cemetery index record does, giving 'dau/Richard & Henrietta (Tolhurst)' and pointing at her father's and mother's own inscriptions (7864287 and 6427306).

For William Henry & Henrietta Crossingham

MY DEAR WIFE & OUR DEAR MOTHER / HENRIETTA HENRY / DIED APRIL 22. 1922 AGED 62 YEARS. / ALSO OUR DEAR FATHER / WILLIAM HENRY / DIED APRIL 10. 1941 AGED 83 YEARS.

The shared Moorland headstone, read from the uploaded photograph: it names them husband and wife and gives both deaths. The start date 1888 is the Australian Cemeteries Index's 'BDM Marriage Reg 5336/1888'; that register row has NOT been read, so no marriage event is proposed and the year sits on the family only. William's birth year is derived from 'AGED 83 YEARS' in April 1941.
