    [Unfortunately, there is no picture with this memorial, and the inscription given belongs to the Lydia who was wife of Jesse Edson (compare to the picture attached to this other memorial), the inscription naming her husband Jesse, and giving her age as 36, neither of which facts apply to this Lydia. Jesse's wife Lydia died just 2 days before Joseph's wife Lydia according to Bridgewater VRs. According to this cemetery listing, the actual inscription is "Here lies buried Mrs. Lydia Edson, ye wife of Dea. Joseph Edson, who died Jan. 24, 1762 in ye 80th year of her age."]
