Abigail Suter married William Calvin Cowger on 22 August 1849 in Wilson County, Tennessee. They were the parents of one child, William A., who is also buried in Sursa Cemetery. All three gravemarkers can be found just west of the central gravel drive, on the south side of the old section.
Extensive maintenance of the graves in Sursa has been undertaken by the board of trustees, and this particular stone was almost unreadable before restoration.
