He shares a monument there with wife Margaret (Hempleman).
His other findagrave entry:
https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/7505527/henry-jefferson-sulser
includes an obit about how he lived in Illinois, moved to Missouri years ago on his way to California. The dates agree with him moving after his wife Margaret died in Jan 1873. And there is a Henry Sulser who married a Mary Milano in September 1873 in Cass County, Missouri.
The only Henry Sulser we find in the 1880 census is H.J.Sulser (b. in Virginia about 1817) in Cass County, Missouri, married to Mary, with household including stepson Sidney Melin. All matches up with the Henry Sulser who married Margaret Hempleman.
Looks like he moved and married a 2nd time and is probably buried in Missouri.
