Inscription

Head up the hill from the river front shops, across the main highway, continue up the hill. Brick church is on the left. Continue up about 8-10 blocks from river front shops. Cemetery on left, easy to see, fenced and gated. The Fegtly stone is big and substantial, double for John Wesley and Martha Kuhn. Smaller stones for Emma L. and James M. (both died in infancy). Another stone for Samuel M., John Wesley's brother, who willed $100 to Martha Kuhn for a perpetual scholarship to Wesleyan University scholarship for her children. Samuel has a metal GAR stand. His stone has fallen over and is hard to read.
