"We found the Drury family buried on Lot #87, and along with it a stone that just says MOTHER. This we believe is Susan. It does not go with adjoining lot burials so we are sure that it is part of the Drury family.” The member of the Lexington Genealogical and Historical Society who contacted me also stated that they found this while reviewing the sexton records.
