Gravestone reads
"In memory of
Susannah E.
wife of Wm. L. Karr
& daughter of Sam’l & R. Robison
Died Nov 6, 1861;
In the 21st year of her age.
Is an obedient and faithful Daughter
a devoted and loving wife & fond caressing
Mother of an only Infant Son, she had but
few equals and no superiors
Remember Youth as you pass by
As you are now so once was I
As I am now, soon you must be
Therefore prepare to follow me"
Some of the gravestones in this cemetery have the name Robison while others have the name Robeson, so the names may be Robison or Robeson.
