Daughter of sixth US President John Quincy Adams and his wife Louisa Catherine Adams.

Young Louisa developed dysentery and severe illness shortly after her first birthday as she began to teeth. While her parents took her to the country side outside of Saint Petersburg in hopes of the child getting better, they finally took her back to the city shortly before her death when the situation became worse. Louisa died at 1:25AM on September 15, 1812 and was buried on September 17th.

On September 15, 2012 members of the Russian and US Government, along with the Massachusetts Historical Society, laid a brand new stone at the spot historians believe Louisa is buried at in the cemetery.
