I need a bit of help from someone in the Lewes DE area. There is a woman buried at St. Peters Episcopal Church who is "famous" for the inscription on her tombstone: Elizabeth Cullen Elizabeth, wf of Charles M. Feb 30 1860 Sep 20 1838 The above data is taken from Tatnall and Hudson's work. But I assume the "1860" should be "1760". And, yes, the tombstone does show her date as Feb 30 ! I visited this tombstone years ago, but I now need: The exact wording of what is on the tombstone and/or a clear JPG photo of the tombstone (this is preferred). I want to use this as a GREAT example that not all tombstones' inscriptions are to be trusted ! Thanks in advance. Roy C Pollitt Punta Gorda FL
