Tombstone Tuesday - Edwin and Alice (Corey) Richmond in Leominster, Mass.

...
Edwin Thomas Richmond (1883-1935) is one of my grand-uncles - the brother of my grandmother, Alma Bessie (Richmond) Seaver.  He and his wife, Alice (Corey) Richmond (1884-1979), are buried in Evergreen Cemetery in Leominster, Massachusetts:



This gravestone provides full names, birth dates and death dates for Edwin and Alice.  I wish all gravestones did!  Edwin and Alice (Corey) Richmond had one child - Helen Corey Richmond (1906-1997) who married Ralph Carlton Ordway (1903-1987). 

I took this picture on one of our visits to Evergreen Cemetery - probably in 2004 when we buried my aunt and uncle - Janet and Ed Seaver - in Evergreen Cemetery.

i have recently found a few headstones that are listing maiden names (I already knew the maiden names, but it was exciting to see that they thought it important to have the name carved into their stone.

Randy, I created almost all of the Seaver memorials in Evergreen on FindAGrave, so I just linked Edward and Janet together.
