Hi all, Not sure if anyone is interested but this article was on the NBC10.com website. Grave Marker Unearthed Near Franklin's Grave PHILADELPHIA -- Workers preparing a new path to Benjamin Franklin's grave site unearthed another grave marker in the Christ Church Burial Ground. The six-foot by three-foot marker, about six inches below ground level, bears the date of Robert Usher's death in 1761. The stone lists other members of the Usher family, including a brother, Abraham, who was a member of the church vestry in 1774-75, a contemporary of Franklin's at the church. More than 4,000 people are buried in the two-acre graveyard at Fifth and Arch Streets where Franklin's grave is located, and records of the grave sites are often lacking. "We discovered this marker that we had no idea existed," said John Hopkins, burial ground coordinator for the Christ Church Preservation Trust. Hopkins said the church vestry will decide what to do about the marker directly in the line of the planned path to Franklin's grave.
