returned in summer when I had more time to look at the headstones. Whitman
used to be part of Abington, Ma. where I live and up until it split away it was
known as South Abington. There are many headstones of older Abington families
there dating from the late 1700's:
 | ||
| Gideon Ramsdell died 28Feb 1795 "Life how short, Eternity how long. |
Lydia Brown's headstone has sunken in so far her death date is hidden:
 | |
| Mrs. Silence Reed, relict of Adam Reed 29July 1810 |
 | ||
| John Brown 5 September 1816 |
