The first inscribed headstones placed in this burial ground are those at the graves of Mrs. Jane Sterling and the infant children of Mr. Carmichael, although they were not the first persons buried within this enclosure. These stones were prepared at Burlington, N. J., then the rival of Philadelphia.
Until the mid-to-late-19th century, no record of the interments was kept, and many of those buried there do not have stones to mark their last resting places. It is, therefore, almost impossible to ascertain with precision how many have been buried in this graveyard.
This is the largest of the three graveyards at Brandywine Manor, having been expanded on several occasions.
