So while I admit is is plausible that Ruby's mother was on the same team with Ozpin and Glynda (and maybe Crimson?), I don't think she was Summer Rose. The way I see it, Summer Rose is White Cloak. Evidence:


 * Summer Rose is the name on the Cliffside Altar, also White Cloak's location.


 * The grave looks old, too old to have been from a generation back (assuming earth-normal lifespans in the RWBYverse). And I feel like Ozpin and Glynda would have tended it had it been recent, and it doesn't look that way.

And there are the plot holes I know I had. In truth I really don't know why I linked the two together, but I am standing firm on my thought that maybe Ozpin and Ruby's mom on the same team, just the Summer part is gone. Not to sound odd but I was waiting for you to reply to this so you could point out the holes in it. That doesn't strike me as odd, I do that all the time.
 * A concept art pic in the "Beacon Academy" image gallery showed a statue of someone holding a scythe. My guess that someone is Summer Rose. And although we haven't seen the statue in detail yet, my guess is that Ruby's mom would have died too recently for that statue to be made for her.
