Note: I did not find "Warren" or "Alzada E." - perhaps these
were the stones I found to be 'unreadable' - they would certainly be the
oldest.
There are several different spellings of the surname, even on the same
stone! Several were hard to read, so "?" was used.

me smooth my pillar, mourn my lull but death's power would soon devide
me from the dearest of them all.

So farewell my dearest until we meet again where we shall
never part. |
