The monument includes the parents, all twelve children, the spouses of the two who married, three Morgan grandchildren and the husband of the one of the Morgan grandchildren who married. It is reasonably certain that not all of them were brought to Wethersfield for burial. Not included is Frances (Fannie) DeLord Webb, daughter of Henry Livingston and Frances (DeLord) Webb, who married Francis Bloodgood Hall and died, childless, at Plattsburgh, New York, in 1913.
