I went off searching census records on Ancestry to look for other members of the family and discovered a problem.

In 1880, Carrie is shown as a daughter of Thomas and Mary Gillett.

In 1900 and 1910 Carrie is married to Charles C Baldwin and living with his mother Lucy. Son Stanley Baldwin is listed in 1910.

In 1920 Carrie Baldwin, a widow is still living with her mother-in-law and son.

In 1930 Carrie Baldwin has moved to Batavia and her widowed mother Mary Gillett is living with her.


Based on that, I believe that the last names of Carrie's husband Charles C ( 21787538 ) and son Stanley ( 21787550 ) should be changed from Balch to Baldwin.

I found Stanley Baldwin living in Buffalo in 1930 with his wife Miriam. I believe that is the Miriam Balch ( 21787544 ) buried in Alexander.

The Baldwin Balch stone is a mystery to me. It sounds like there is some kind of connection between the Baldwin and Balch families. Possibly Carrie remarried after 1930 or more likely, there is a Balch connection earlier on the Baldwin family since there is an early burial of Frederick Balch in the same cemetery.
