INSCRIPTIONS ON GRAVESTONES
IN THE OLD CEMETERY AT
(T^ HANCOCK, N. H. ^
191 1.
A Copy of INSCRIPTIONS on the Gravestones
IN THE
OLD CEMETERY, or PINE RIDGE CEMETERY,
so CALLED, IN HaNCOCK, NEW HAMPSHIRE.
This publication is issued with the view of preserving in a con-
venient and permanent form of print, a copy of the inscriptions on the
gravestones in the Old Cemetery. In many instances these records
can be found in no other place, and as time goes on even these will be
obliterated, and all record of the last resting places of the former
generations of the inhabitants of our town be lost. It is but fitting
that we honor their memory by preserving these records in a durable
form to hand down to future generations. The most that we can do
for them now is to see to it that their graves are not forgotten.
There are many mounds in the cemetery (some with rough stones
at the head and feet) indicating graves that must ever remain
unmarked and unknown.
The inscriptions have been copied as nearly as possible exactly as
found upon the stones, including the spelling, capitalization, punctu-
ation and the use of the old fashioned s(f)on some of the older stones.
The variations of spelling the same name even in the same family have
been observed.
Although not strictly in accordance with the vote of the town we
have recorded a few unmarked graves by request with the expectation
that stones will be erected to correspond, and properly marked in the.
near future. Many of these unmarked graves may have stones erected
to mark them as time goes on and many more burials will likely be
made there in the old cemetery, but all record of these must neces-
sarily be omitted from this work.
The idea of copying these inscriptions was undoubtedly suggested
from a similar work published recently by the town of Peterboroug-h,
and the subject was first brought up at a meeting of Hancock Histori-
cal Society by the late Mr. Orland Eaton. As a result the following
resolution was passed at the annual town meeting of March 1909.
Resolved, That the town through its cemetery committee or otherwise, take action
to try to persuade the relatives of those whose gravestones are broken, in the old
cemetery here, to replac^ them, and solicit funds towards the expense of procuring
printed cojjies of all inscriptions in this cemetery at an early date in the luture.
Orlnud Entoii wiis sclcclctl to cnrrv out tlic foi-cooinii' resolution.
Before the annual town meeting of March 1910, Mr. Eaton, the
instigator and prime mover in this enterprise, was tali;en from us, but
the following vote of the town shows how his interest in the work con-
tinued through life:
Voted, To accept the legacy of One Hundred Dollars bequeathed to the town by the
late Orland Eaton according to the terms stated in the codocil of his will (to be
used toward the expense of printing the inscriptions on the gravestones in the old
cemetery, provided this work is completed within two years from the date of his
decease.)
As a result of the vote of the annual meeting of 1909 seventy dollars
had been contributed for the work, and the success of the enterprise
was assured at the annual town meeting of 1910 by the passage of the
following motion:
Voted, That a survey and plan of the old cemetery be prepared, that a copy of the
inscriptions on all the gravestones be made and printed for permanent preservation
under the direction of a committee of three, to be appointed by the selectmen, and
that the sum of one hundred and fifty dollars be raised and appropriated for the
purpose to be used in connection with any donations or contributions made for this
object.
Under the above motion, Andrew B. Stone, Edgar L. Ware and
Wilfred M. Davis were appointed a committee to carry the foregoing
resolutions into effect, the result of their efforts being the publication
of this book of inscriptions.
Explanation of Plan.
This plan of the old cemetery has been prepared to aid in the location
of gravestones. On account of being next to the highway it was
thought best to use the row of iron pins on the north side of the
cemetery to measure from in the location of graves. At the points
indicated by letters of the alphabet on the plan, are set eighty-four iron
pins, forty-two on each side, firmly secured in the foundation stones
of the wall which surrounds the cemetery. On the ends of these iron
pins letters are cut as shown in the plan. In some portions of the
yard the graves are placed very irregularly and in order to establish
some plan for the location of these graves, imaginary lines were run
north and south as indicated on plan, wherever an unobstructed space
through the gravestones could be found, and measurements from the
north iron pins southerly to the front of each gravestone were made,
and from this imaginary line east to the face of the gravestone.
Under this arrangement will be found a letter and figure at the left
of each of the following printed record of inscriptions to indicate its
location; for instance, A .57 indicates that the grave is south fifty-
seven feet from the north iron pin marked A, on an imaginary line to
the south iron pin with a similar letter.
The figure at the right of the record of inscription indicates that it
is that number of feet east from this imaginary line to the face of the
gravestone.
On account of using more iron pins at each end of these imaginary
lines than there are letters in the alphabet, this second alphabet is
indicated thus lA, IB, &c., both at the right of the records of inscrip-
tions and upon the iron pins and continues through the alphabet the
second time as far as the letter P.

Sweet is the memory of the dead,
When walking round his lowly bed;
May angels guard thy sleeping dust.
Till Jesus comes to raise the just.
Then may he in bright splendor rise;
With shouts of joy assend the skies;
And join that happy throng.
Which swell the grand celestial song.

"Dearest Father thou hast left us.
Here thy loss we deeply feel
But 'tis God that hath bereft us.
He can all our sorrows heal.
Peaceful be thy silent slumber
Peaceful in thy tomb so low;
Thou, no more will join our numbers;
Thou, no more our sorrows know.
Yet again we hope to meet thee,
When the day of life is fled
Then in Heaven, with joy to greet thee.
Where no Farewell tear is shed"

And flowerets rise to deck this spot.

Beneath these sods thy lovely forms.

Till Christ shall come to raise the dead
And take tliee to thy home.

Dearest Motner thou hast left us.
To mingle with the blest above;
And i am left to mourn the loss.
But thy memory still i love.
Mother thine earthly image dear
Ne'er from my memory shall fleet:
Ne'er on my lips thy name shall die
While reason holds its seat.
But Jesus in his holy word.
To me a glorious pledge has given,
Though pious friends are parted here.
They all shall meet again in Heaven.
