The grave of Sarah Woodbridge is marked by a beautifully restored rectangular marble headstone. The stone is decorated with a relief of an urn flanked by two circular patterns probably representing flowers. Sarah died of dropsy which is an old fashioned term for edema. Her headstone is inscribed:
Madam
Sarah Woodbridge
relect of
Rev. Timothy Woodbridge
died
suddenly of a dropsy
19 Nov. 1781 Etatis 57 mo
"Etatis" is the Latin word for age and "mo" may be the initials of the sculptor.
