According to cemetery records, the lot holder for the west half of this lot was Daniel Roland. Lots are 12 feet wide and 16 feet deep. The photo above is taken from the right side of the back half of the west half of the lot (facing east).

[The plural "Children" implies that this marker was probably erected sometime after the second child died.]
