Suggested edit: Elizabeth Easter (nee Sizeland) was born in England. She married Jacob Easter also of England. They lived and farmed in Augusta Township, Ontario. Census records indicate they had a very large family, upwards of eight children in 1851.
Jacob died in his 60th year, killed by an accident on the farm. The headstone for her and Jacob has Elizabeths' name confirming their marriage however, her date of death (c1896) and age is blank. This may indicate since she died 20 years later that the dates were not inscribed by the family or that she is buried elsewhere. The grave next to Jacobs and Elizabeths' is that of James Sizeland and Mary Harrison, her parents.
The headstone has broken and fallen over the decades. It lays between and just steps from the Blue Church and the Barbara Heck Memorial next to Highway 2.

Inscription
Cease, ye mourners, cease to languish O'er the grave of those you love; Pain and death and night and anguish Enter not the world above.
