Willie Pease, 1882.  Marble obelisk with matching plinth and base which is unattached and leaning. The weight of the monument is more than 700lbs. The plinth and upper portion of the monument has shifted on the base and is no longer centered.  Unstable as is.  A tripod will be used to remove  pieces for cleaning.  Monument will be reset, leveled, plumbed.

Mary J Macomber, 1871  Large marble tablet with base impacted by tree roots and has sunk.  Base will be excavated to see if it is useable.  Tablet approx. weight 350lbs. 

Mary & her 2 children (behind, on the ground) will be repaired and placed together a safe distance from the tree to avoid further disruption.  All stones will be cleaned, reset, leveled, plumbed.

Stones can often be found partially or fully underground.

Solomon Slocum, father/husband to the Slocum family (next), is 'missing'.  It's possible his headstone had fallen and is now covered by soil and grass.  Probing the family burial area to find his headstone will take place while not disturbing the grass.  If it is found, excavation will take place. The base will be raised, then the headstone raised, cleaned, and repaired.  

Any stones found in this manner will be cleaned, repaired, reset, leveled, plumbed.  (A family  united)

Sarah Slocum, 1877 propped in front of a broken brownstone base.  The bottom of the tablet may be broken.  Base may need to be replaced.

Priscilla Slocum, 1858 on the ground.  Stone is fractured with pieces missing, base is fractured.

Charles Slocum, 1853, the more distant standing stone.  Stone is outside of its broken brownstone base.  Bottom of the stone may be fractured, base may be useable.

All stones will be cleaned, repaired, reset, leveled, plumbed.
