Lydia's gravestone was engraved with the incorrect date of death; the month should be October. The date she died was reported in the National Aegis (Worcester, Mass.) as October 9th in their edition printed on Oct. 23, 1844. Miss Lovering married Lyman Hodges Bassett here in Phillipston on May 9, 1833. She's buried next to her husband's parents, Isaac and Dilly Bassett.
