Phi Mu
One of our founder's is buried in Jacksonville, FL and another is in Macon, GA.
I have visited the Macon site and she is buried with a myriad of family members <3. Both of these gravs have huge quatrefoil headstones. I'm not certain where the last one is buried because I'm pretty sure she moved away from the area, but I'm almost certain she has the same.

Reason: MysticCat made me realize that I meant to say "Gravestone" and not Graves. It would be really difficult to dig quatrefoils.

Really? Quatrefoil-shaped graves?! I hope the grave diggers were paid extra, 'cause that would be one hell of a hole to dig.
Sorry. I couldn't resist.

Haha, I see. Thanks for pointing that out. Yes, it would be terribly hard to dig quatrefoil-shaped graves. Anyone who can do that deserves a raise!

Yes, Chi Omega knows where all 5 Founders are buried and each one has "Founder of Chi Omega" on the stone, if it was possible to do so.
Founder, Jean Vincenheller Dengler is buried in Arlington Cemetery and the military did not allow her stone to include this designation.

I only found one of Sigma Kappa's five founders on a quick google for headstones. Here is Mary Low Carver's gravesite (on the left, top and bottom):
