no, i don't believe anyone has found one yet.
very little is actually known about jane.
she married but never had children but some records indicate that from time to time children stayed in their home.
during the civil war she lived alone, her husband wasn't fighting in the war - the records show that her husband lived with the brother.
according to later census records the husband did return to live with her but only after living away for around 10 years.
they weren't together for very long after he return, around 7 years. they ended up losing everything they owned and they were extremely poor. they lost all their property and were living as boarders in some one else's home.
she wasn't buried next to her husband or his family instead she was buried with her extended family.
