Enhanced close up photo for Dorcas Butler Cilley. Notice how she died in the 91st yr of her age. There is a lovely inscription below the dates. Again, if I am recalling correctly this date of death actually represented a merger of her birth month with her death year. I do not recall the correct info offhand, but the Mayflower Society (Ohio and Mass) has several years of my research arduously proving her line back. She is my well documented 4th great grandmother. Please write if you also descend from her.

Enhanced photo. See Dorcas' inscription on same tall white marker that her husband shares, Major Jonathan Cilley, Rev. War soldier. Do note that Dorcas' death date here is wrong, as I proved to the Mayflower Society several years ago. If you are preparing lineage papers from her line know that the Ohio and Mass ladies have the sources, so do apply!

Enhanced photo. Notice the clear letters, D.B. Cilley on the small white headstone/footstone to the viewer's left in this photo. This stands for Dorcas Butler Cilley. Her large memorial is on the tall white monument straight ahead of her headstone. On this day, I was worried about the Cilley monument being pushed so far off its base, so notice the danger here. I sent pictures and made phone calls about the problem...These are my direct ancestors, please write if they are yours also. Thanks. I noticed on my next visit that the brown headstone here, has initials J.C. on it, and given its placement seems to be for Joseph Cilley, next to his mother, Dorcas Butler.
