Unknown, Unknown unknown unknown   Inscription on stone gone.

Note: The Sawyer stones were extremely difficult to read, even with trying to do rubbings. The  y-e-r  letters were clear, but I only question the first letters because there was also a Thayer family that lived in the area. My first instinct was Sawyer, but one should be open to the options. According to descendants of the Abrams family, there is probably more family in unmarked graves. Judy
