I JUST discovered the the "Find A Grave" website (http://www.findagrave.com/),
and GUESS who's listed???
> * Ludington, Sybil.
> US Civil War Hero.
> buried at: Patterson Baptist Church, Patterson, New York.
According to my trusty Delorme Guide, Carmel NY (statue site) and Patterson NY
(burial site) are only about 5 miles apart... HOWEVER, note that "Find A
Grave" lists her as a Civil War hero and the original request from Mr. Lord
said she was in the Revolution...
Bonnie Glickman, Rochester, NY
