| Gravestone of Hannah (Grant) Bishop Rhode Island Historical Cemetery -- Cumberland 3 |
Namon Bishop is one of my 5X great grandfathers. He is said to have been lost at sea. Namon married Hannah Grant who was born circa 1753 and died in Cumberland, Rhode Island on November 8, 1805 at age 52.
Hannah's gravestone reads. . .
Our mother is gone and has left us to mourn
She loudly has spoken twill soon be our turn.
In the month of November she was laid in her grave
O may we remember the warnings she gave.
