This may have been a plot for Hezekiah but it is doubtful that he is buried here. Please contact me if a stone is found in Ohio, and I will correct. jf

[Hezekiah was a son of Hezekiah Root (1747-1808) and 2nd wife Mary Barnes]

[Hezekiah Root's probate record (dated 1883) is housed in the probate archives in Cuyahoga Co, Ohio. After the death of his 1st and 2nd wife, he moved out to Ohio with his daughter, Lydia Root Anderson.
He was most likely not buried in this cemetery that you cite, but some cemetery in close proximity to Cuyahoga Co... his daughter Sarah C Root also went out there, she is on the 1880 census with him. She was rumored to be buried in Riverside Cemetery in Cuyahoga, OH
