Wow, it's incredible that you have your line traced so far back. What a fabulous old headstone...still in great condition for being so old.
ReplyDeleteShe died quite young...do you khow how she died? Childbirth?
Patti, I have cousins to thank for getting this line back so far. I love the old headstones...the designs and carving are so interesting. Unfortunately I don't know much else about Hannah Gilbert; she and her husband died within a few days of each other so I suspect it was an illness of some kind.
