This is the hypothesized burial location of Daniel, based on research that produced the contributing evidence to follow. When Daniel died in 1872, he and his wife Freelove (Farnham) Sanborn were living with their son James' widowed wife Melissa (Smith) Sanborn, in Irasburg, in the home of Ira Howland Smith and his wife Delia (Gibb), along with their children and Delia's father Thomas Gibbs. Daniel dies in Jul 1872, Thomas in Mar 1873, and Freelove in Nov. 1874. Graves for these three, like that of their son James who died in 1866, have also not been located. Thomas Gibb's 2nd wife, and Delia's mother, Betsey Aldrich Gibbs had previously died in 1839 and was laid to rest in Irasburg Cemetery in a 6-grave lot. It is plausible that Betsey's husband Thomas and the three Sanborns were buried here in that same lot with Betsey.

A Mar 2022 conversation with Town Clerk's office and the cemetery sexton confirmed that burial permits were not yet in use at the time, nor were vaults used. Documentation in local newspapers during the times of their deaths was not found to mention the location of burial. Therefore, having no physical or documented evidence, it is unlikely this hypothesis can be proved or disproved. The burials could have taken place on the remote property where they all resided in Coventry Gore or even an old cemetery on the Newport side of the gore, but it remains most plausible that they were buried in this lot with Betsey Aldrich Gibbs and the graves were never memorialized. The only documentation found that could contradict the hypothesis is a 1938 survey map by A.M. Clough. On the map, Lot 127 is only occupied by "Betsey," However, any survey would have been based on the limited documentation and visual evidence related to the cemetery that has been analyzed during the generation of this hypothesis.
