History, grad school, and gravestones!
This must be a Boston area gravestone! I've seen evidence of dropped R's on gravestones and records in New England going back to the 1700s.
Yep, it's in Groton, MA.I have found 12 gravestones that have this delightful misspelling of "departed."You may also enjoy these r-added stones.
