["I took this inscription off a Gravestone in a family burying place on Bp Berkleys White Hall farm on Rh. Isld about A. D. 1763. Collector Robinson bought the Lease about 1765 and demolished the Gravestones & put them into Wall: so that all is lost. From a loose paper which I wrote 1763 I now copy here. This Sam' Hubbd was a Baptist Teacher- settled at Newp' about 1648, and made this Eben. 1688. Intricate as it seems, more is contained on this stone than can be given in others Words in so small a space. I think 1688 must be a year common to 4 dates. I shd suppose the stone erected Sep. 27, 1688 when the Wife was set. 79. & 7. m° and M' Hubbd was set. 78. on 1o May that year ; and on 4 Jany. that year they had been married 51 years. The 14 Vpsal 4 is 145"' Psalm & 4th v, one gener" shall praise thy works to another. The B and C I think a beautiful way of expressing lineal Descents. Thus Naomi B Rogers I take to be Naomi Burdick who married Rogers - so Judah Maxson was the Daughter of Bethiah Clark, & it will be read Judah Clark Maxson"]
