The monument is a Victorian era replacement for the individual sandstone steles which originally memorialized these four members of the Kitchell family, and does not necessarily mark their graves. Joseph's and Rachel's remains are probably located beneath an addition to the church which was built after their deaths, and Rachel's original gravestone, which still survives, is located elsewhere in the cemetery.
