She recalled a grave stone in the graveyard of the St. Paul's Church located in Mt. Vernon, NY just north of The Bronx. She forwarded a photo of the stone which indicated it had been erected by the DAR in memory of the Hessian Soldiers killed nearby and buried "in the sand pit" in 1776. > > Saint Paul's Church National Historic Site, 897 South Columbus Ave., Mt.
