Solomon Babb, the father of Lemuel, was born in the town of Strafford, in the county of the same name, in New Hampshire, but died in Belknap County when his son Lemuel was sixteen years old. He had married in early life Abigail Meader, a native of Rochester, N.H., who survives him at the advanced age of ninety-two years. The father of Solomon, Moses Babb, was a soldier in the Continental Army, and his brother John served in the British Army under Wolfe and was also a soldier in the Continental Army during the Revolution.

Note: As there is no cemetery record for Soloman and the biography states he died in New Hampshire, it is possible this is just a memorial stone and no burial, or he was moved from New Hampshire to this cemetery at some later date. (Cemetery did not exist at his time of death.) His wife Abigal and son Lemuel are buried in this plot.
