Quoting from the Official Report of the First American Tyler Family Reunion held at North Andover, Mass., Wednesday, September 2, 1896 . . . Not far from Moses' grave, and quite near the north wall of the enclosure, is this moss-covered, broken and inclining slab:
HERE LYES BURIED
the BODY OF Mrs
ABIGalL TYLER
WItH HER CHILD
the WIFe OF Mr
JaCOB TYLER WHO
DIED MaRCH the
25 1722 & IN Ye
23 YEAR OF HER AGE.
(It will be noticed that this stone is over five years older than that of Moses: is, in fine, the oldest Tyler stone yet found by us. This stone marks the resting place of the first wife of Jacob — son of Moses — whose maiden name was Abigail Kimball. The "child " refers to "Elizabeth," born in 1719, who died 26 April, 1722, succumbing, like her mother, to that dread foe of the early settlers, smallpox. Jacob later married Abigail Foster, and removed to Woburn, Mass., where he was blessed by a posterity.)
