While the card for this burial in Sexton's index card file shows Syddenhour ACREE, the first name from the original entry in the Sexton's ledger book is almost certainly Syddenham. The surname as written could be ACEE or ACRE but likely is the same as the local name ACREE. Entry shows this person was born in Georgia, died (age not reported) of small pox, and was buried 16 JAN 1867 in the Old Cemetery as a resident of Columbus. Robert Thomas SIMONS was the city sexton at the time.

Card for Lorraine ACEE shows she was born 13 NOV 1819, died aged 24 years & was buried 17 SEP 1844 in the MIMS Lot in the Old Cemetery. It has been inferred that Syddenham is also buried in this lot. The MIMS family lot in the Old Cemetery section is H- in Dolores Autry's "Historic Linwood Cemetery" (edited by Lea Dowd et al.), volume 2, p. 28. Update: The lot reported as H-64 appears to actually be two lots: 64A is the MIMS family lot, and 64B includes surnames MARTIN, ACREE, LAMB. Also, part of what is reported as Lot 64 (McCOOK, BENTLEY) instead belongs with H-43.
