The text on this gravestone tells us that she died young, but had children:

אשה צנועה ויקרה
במעשי' תמה וברה
עלי' יקוננו בני' במרה
רכה בשנים אשת
חיל מרת שרה שיינדל
בת מוה חיים נ"י
ת.נ.צ.ב.ה.


It is interesting how, out of respect for God's name, the letter HEY is omitted at the end of the three words that otherwise would have ended with YOD and HEY. I cannot remember having seen this in modern Hebrew in Israel.
