location in row near several other unreadable stones, particularly between old stone C.A. 1821 and Margaret Eyster.

It has the same A cut design as in "1811 GA AP3" I ran it through the image program and could make out "87" ENU MER IST FROAH (Wife???) G A , the A in GA having the same cut of A design. Could this be a wife of GA??? or conncted to CA
In an attempt to to figure out the words - didn't recognize any German or PA dutch really and thought the bottom said Sheets but it looks more like Steest. I don't know at the bottom if 881 was a year old age like 88 y 1 m or 8 y 8 m 1 d?

Will be sorting out "all" of the METZ names in the area to eventually identify. To be continued as several work on this.
