**[From Edwin Goad]: Based on what my dad, "Hugo" Goad told me, and looking at the stones, I believe this is the grave of Eliza Ann Bolt Worrell. When they placed the Confederate marker (mistakenly named "Lewis D. Worrell", in my pinion) on Lorenzo's grave, they moved his old headstone to the left onto his wife's grave. Maybe this happened around the time she died and she never had another stone? But you can see that a matching foot stone to the old marker is still at the foot of the grave on the right with the confederate marker. According to "63rd Virginia Infantry" by Jeffrey C. Weaver, there was a Lewis Worrell (1830-1/21/1900) also in the same Co. I of the 63rd that Lorenzo Dow was in, but he is buried in the Isaac Banks Cemetery. Seems like a mix-up must have occurred, and they put the wrong stone on this grave. Lorenzo and Eliza Ann were the parents of Cordelia - Uncle Fed's wife.
**From John Perry Alderman's "The Settlements", p. 116-7, Carter Worrell Married Mary Largen in 1845. He was the 14th and last child of the first family of Amos Worrell (1772-1860+) (Mother was Ellen Roberts). Amos was born in Pennsylvania as 4th child of James Worrell (~1732-1802) and Elizabeth Crandall. James was the son of Peter and Mary Trego Worrell of Chester County, PA, and was a Quaker until he fought in the Rev. war (6th Battalion, Penn Militia). Came to Carroll probably via Guilford County, NC.
Side note: Many people were named Lorenzo Dow back at that time, probably in honor of the famous traveling preacher of that era.
