Both Mary and her husband William Ward Burrows were originally buried here. William Ward Burrows was re-intered on May 12, 1892 at Arlington National Cemetery in Section 1, Grave 301-B in the Western Division, and a stone was placed there for him. No stone was placed for his wife Mary at Arlington. It is unknown at this time if and where Mary was re-intered. The grave photos shown on this, her memorial is the grave of her husband William Ward Burrows at Arlington National Cemetery.
Mary was the daughter of Dr. Thomas Bond, Jr., and Ann Morgan. She was baptized November 28, 1765 by The Rev. Richard Peters, Rector of Christ Church, Philadelphia. Her parents are named in the baptism record as Thomas and Ann Bond.
She married William Ward Burrows on September 13, 1783 at Kinderton Farm in Northern Liberties, near Philadelphia. William Ward Burrows was the son of William Burrows and Mary Ward. He was the 1st Lieutenant Colonel Commandant of the reconstituted United States Marine Corps. Upon his death in 1805 he was buried beside his wife Mary at the Old Presbyterian Cemetery, Georgetown, Washington City (as this location was called then). On May 12, 1892, he was re-interred at Arlington National Cemetery, Arlington, Virginia. (I assume his wife Mary was re-interred here also). In the Burrows-Thompson Bible, it is recorded that Mary Bond, daughter of Dr. Thomas Bond of Philadelphia, granddaughter of Dr. Thomas Bond of the same place, married William Ward Burrows.
The Burrows-Thompson Bible was presented to the United States Marine Corps on October 12, 1971 by Mrs. Keith Neville, a descendant, and was authenticated by the Library of Congress Washington, D.C. on October 10, 1972. It is now in the United States Marine Corps Archives.
