Joseph H. and Ellen Cadmus repose under matching tombstones.  Note the small stone to Joseph's left.  This marks the grave of their infant, lost to the historical records.  There appears to be something carved on this small stone, but we could not decipher it that day.  Their stones are surrounded by stones of members of the large, extended Seguine family.

                                                   _____________
Joseph was born on July 13, 1801 so he also lived 8 days but no number appears to have been carved in front of "DAYS."
