    "Elias Morgan / B. 1 Dec. 1770, D. 10 July 1812."

    This memorial is for a monument; burial must have been at St. Croix or at sea. Of the individuals on this wall of the monument, it appears than none died at Wethersfield. Elias Morgan died at St. Croix and Thomas Chester Coit died and was buried in New York City. The burials of Henry Elias Morgan, Mary Ann (Morgan) Coit and Lavinia Morgan, are unknown.
