This poor woman's information has gotten so fouled up it's criminal.

Her family search record is well documented and has some really good notes on it, which explain some of the circumstances. She was apparently born out of wedlock to Frank Dana and Cordelia Rowe, but was adopted by her grandparents shortly thereafter. So the birth records in Vermont show her surname as Dana, but thereafter everything shows Rowe and then her married name of Gates.

The Forest Lawn websites (both of them) list her as "Ida" Rowe Gates, not Ada Rowe Gates. This led one chucklehead idiot on Find A Grave to find a completely different person in the death indexes and add a memorial for that person. This memorial is not really a duplicate, but it's for a person who is either buried somewhere other than Forest Lawn or had some other disposition. That memorial number, for those who want to know, is 145691088. If that contributor ever dies or is booted off of find a grave I will put in an edit to change the burial to a "burial unknown". Actually, now that I did a little digging, I suspect that memorial is a duplicate of 124997153. If I can lock that down I will submit some edits on find a grave and have them merge the wrong one in Forest Lawn into the right one in a cemetery in Orange County, California.

It doesn't help any that all five known members of this family are grouped under one marker with just the surname with no first names or birth or death dates or years. Once you connect the dots it becomes pretty clear, but it also means that people can do what was described above and add FAG memorials for completely wrong people based on this plot location with no visual confirmation that they have made a mistake.
