Looking for some information

I'm not a relative, but I was looking around an old part of a cemetery near Ozark, IL and got curious about something. I thought maybe some of you would have knowledge about it.

I found the graves of Philander Yandell and his son Nathan J. Yandell, which were next to each other. Then about 25 paces away a stone that said "Frances H., wife of Philander Yandell". I had to wonder why she wasn't buried near her husband and son. Do any of you know the story behind it? I saw someone had put a newer tombstone by Philander and Nathan's graves that had all three names on it.

Please let me know if you have any information about this. I'm always interested in learning about the history of cemeteries and the lives of the people buried there. Thanks for your time; I know you're not really here to answer the questions of people who aren't related.
