There is no record of burial for Charity (nee Ford) Kitchell) buried at the Rockaway Presbyterian Cemetery according Robert W. Nichols / Cemetery Sexton. He believes that she may be buried at the Vail Memorial Cemetery in Parsippany N.J. dated 2022.
Revision from Robert W. Nichols / Cemetery Sexton for the Rockaway Presbyterian Cemetery (# 49164342), dated 1/6/2023:
It is stated by the historian Reverend Joseph Tuttle that she died while nursing her son James when he came down with "Camp Sickness" during the Revolutionary War. James was at Hanover where a hospital was situated for those who caught the diseases (small pox especially) the "natural way", Charity caught the disease, and died from it. She may be buried at the Hanover Presbyterian Cemetery where a mass grave was used during the sickly year of 1776 and 1777. So, she may be either buried in Rockaway after all, since Abraham was a leading member of the church, or Hanover where she most likely died, and was possibly buried in a mass grave there with the others from the hospital who died from the many illnesses that plagued the 1776-1777 year.
