This should give folks more information. I live very near to this cemetery and am descended from A.J. & Phoebe Hammond Hammell and Henry & Frances H. Smith. I go to the cemetery to mow a few times during the summer.

http://www.rootsweb.com/~srgp/cemc/newton2a.htm     Edith V. Bush's birth name was Longcoy. She was the daughter of William and Louisa Longcoy. And I noticed you don't have 2 names listed as being buried in the cemetery. I discovered the grave stones when I visited the cemetery last summer. They are Charles Axtell born June 26, 1837 and died October 1908. Sarah A. Axtell was born August 1840 and died February 1920.
