The known children of David and Ruth are John, Seth, and Reuben Cook.

Let me know if you are descended through David and Ruth.

Inscription

Died 1833 in the ? year of her age

At the bottom of the stone:
"Here must lie beneath the ground
Till Gabriel his loud trump shall sound
Then she with all blest saints shall rise
To meet King Jesus in the skyes."

Indexed by Richard & Marguerite Davis, Aug. 1990

Gravesite Details

The headstone is made of limestone with iron vein deposits inside the stone. The iron deposits oxidized and peeled away from the center of the stone where it was inscribed. We've seen this same phenomenon on other headstones.
