Mr. Moses Fisk - Natick, MA - American Revolutionary War Veteran Graves on Waymarking.com

In Natick's northern part of town is the North Cemetery, which has several graves of American Revolutionary War veterans, including this one of a Mr. Moses Fisk.

The cemetery is on the east side of Mass. Route 27, about .4 miles north of the intersection with Mass. Route 9. It might be better to park at the Dunkin' Donuts store to the north then walk back south. The grave is near the road about 2/3 of the way down. The grave marker is a slab of slate among other slate markers. This one, like a few around it, has a D.A.R. marker next to it with a small American flag sprouting from it.

Not much could be found about him. He was born in 1746 (no month/day)
His father was also Moses Fisk, and is buried in the cemetery as well (1713 - 1770). His mother was Mehetable Broad Fisk (1720 - 1773) - who is buried next to him (check the years on both grave stones!). His wife was Sarah Fisk.

Findagrave.com has the following as the epitath:

"In memory of
MR MOSES FISK,
who died Oct. 2, 1810:
AEt. 65.

Death like a tyrant bore me down,
I was with pain opprest,
Prepare for death while you have time,
And be forever blest."
