Asahel's tombstone says to Look close - 2 brothers and a sister lie next to me....As I have found and linked all sons except Eli and Ezra, that left them to be the brothers..see note below regarding sister also buried here.

1 sister also buried here per Asahels tombstone - Esther had married John Carmichael and died in 1816, so as 2 dtrs were named Rachel, I assume the one born 1760 died infancy ant the second born 1762 was named for her.
