1793 Birth 11 August 1793
Rochester, Massachusetts, USA
The War of 1812 was a conflict between the United States and Great Britain, lasting from 1812 to 1815. It was primarily fueled by issues such as trade restrictions due to Britain's ongoing war with France, impressment of American sailors into the British Navy, and British support of Native American tribes against American expansion. The war ended with the Treaty of Ghent, restoring pre-war boundaries but resolving few of the initial disputes.

Inscription:
I'm lonely now dear husband.
I miss thy friendly voice
Though other friendly surround me.
I deeply feel thy love.
We're lonely now dear father,
For our thoughts in silence trace
Endearing recollections,
Which time can ne're efface.
We're lonely now, dear brother,
Within the house of prayer,
When we meet to praise our saviour
Alas thou art not there.
But when thy blessed memory
of resurrection dawns
Oh then we hop to meet thee
With all the blood washed throng.
