Tombstone inscription:

{{Sacred to the memory - of - MRS. LUCY SMITH - who was born in Culpeper County, Va. - on the 29th of August 1768 - and married Mr. William Smith of - said county and state - on the 8th of August 1786 - with whom she emigrated in early life to Stony Point, S.C. - where she continued to reside until the 3rd of July 1847 - When her immortal Spirit forsook it's tenement of clay - to dwell forever with that Redeemer - In whom alone she trusted for salvation.

Mrs. Smith united with the Baptist Church at Providence - Upwards of Fifty years before her decease. - And under all circumstances proved herself - A devoted Christian, - When the summons came, death was robbed - of it's sting, and the Grave of it's terrors - By an invincible faith in Him, who spoke, - As never man spoke - She was kind and benevolent, To kindred, neighbors and friends, all her life - A pious example worthy of imitation.

One of the last acts of her life - was to leave - A portion of her estate for the support - Of that blessed Gospel which is able - to make men arise unto salvation.

Worms may her flesh consume - but in that world above - Her Christian Soul shall bloom - In everlasting love.

With faithfulness she served God - And every path of virtue trod - Then let each joyful thing - In breathless silence keep - While we her praises sing - And o'er her ashes weep - She lived an ornament on earth - And died lamented for her worth.}}

Lucy lived to age 78.
