Kathy, I looked on Ancestry.com and found that Viola and her family were counted in the US Census in Farmington Township, Van Buren county, Iowa as of June 19, 1900. I don't know how to reconcile that with your family bible record of March 13, 1900, but unless the census enumerator had a gap of over three months to report their findings, perhaps the March 13, 1900 DOD in the family bible is not correct. Her headstone is on the Iowa Gravestones Photo Project website with the dates 1869-1900, so perhaps she died after June 19, 1900 and before January 1, 1901.

Also, her husband Charles A Moreland has his death certificate posted online on Ancestry.com: his DOB was August 25, 1869 and DOD was January 26, 1960 in San Antonio, Texas. I believe that your family tree has him listed as July 1869 - 1961.
