Jesse Crosby was the mate on the brigantine Xagua that sailed from Clyde River on 4 Sep 1874 for the West Indies and was never heard from again. It is uncertain as to why this memorial head stone indicates his year of death as 1875, as it was likely 1874. Jesse's wife was Sarah A. Saunders. (Information from the Lost to the Sea Memorial web site.)∼Name on stone in Brenton Family Cemetery, name on Lost to Sea Memorial on Water Street in Yarmouth
