The initials "L F 1740" is most likely that of Lydia Fuller, daughter of Shubael Fuller and Hannah [Crocker]. She was baptized on 6 July 1712 with her brother Ephraim Fuller [born 1711].

She was admitted full communion in the East Haddam 1st Church of Christ on 18 August 1728, thus showing that she was an adult [aged 19 years]. The town records do not reveal a marriage record for her, so she may be the one who died in 1740.

Her father Shubael Fuller died on 29 May 1748 and her mother Hannah [Crocker] Fuller died on 31 March 1751 and were most likely interred in this yard. Both have no grave-stones, however.
