Perhaps, if it is a pre-carved stone that just needs to be lettered with simple information. Sewall went to so many funerals and noted so many deaths that I do not doubt that he made that entry on August 22 (or during that week), so this may be the best evidence so far for extremely rapid gravestone placement, at least among the respectable of Boston.Caitlin GD Hopkinshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05317897772288904474noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1462946535883846881.post-1832544370551144172010-04-14T17:50:53.071-04:002010-04-14T17:50:53.071-04:00Dunkle & Lainhart's Inscriptions and Recor...Dunkle & Lainhart's <i>Inscriptions and Records of the Old Cemeteries of Boston</i> puts her in King's Chapel under this stone:<br /><br />"Here Lyes Ye Body Of / Mary Wife To John / Winchomb Decesd / August Ye 20th / 1717 In Ye / 69th Year Of / Her Age."<br /><br />—RJORobert J.https://www.blogger.com/profile/12937384579138400443noreply@blogger.com
