Note

related to the family of David Lee Child, and therefore an in-law to Lydia Maria Child.
Note the caption on tombstone "She hath done what she could." Given that we know less about her than most of the Burleigh spouses, this comes across as enigmatic.
Photograph comes from Clarence Winthrop Bowen, The History of Woodstock Connecticut: Genealogies of Woodstock Families. Vol. 3. Norwood Massachusetts: Plimpton Press, 1930. adjacent to page 118. These pictures came from Agnes Burleigh Allen.
