    [Note: see Find A Grave. Unfortunately the photo is not clear enought to make a conclusive reading. The memorial page says "Relict of Jon" and it appears the gravestone says "Jon", though cannot rule out "Jona". The Whitcomb Family, cited below, p. 189, transcribes the husband's name on the gravestone as "John a Whetcomb Esqr."? In any event, it can be seen that it does NOT say "Jonathan".]
