Excerpt from The Essex Institute Historical Collections, Vol. 44 The stranger who wanders through Harmony Grove Cemetery, as he approaches our Soldiers' Monument on his way to the grave of the last of Washington's Life-Guardsmen, finds himself confronted with a heavy granite cenotaph. It is simple and dignified in design and bears upon its base a single name. About it are clustered marble gravestones reared in memory of members of one of the old commercial families of the town. These memorials testify to strong family ties, for they were placed here by a last survivor to commemorate her kin, though their ashes are scattered far and wide. On these stones we read that Frederick Gamaliel Ward, the father, lies buried at Laurel Hill in San Francisco, - that Elizabeth Colburn Ward, his wife, rests here beside their daughters, Elizabeth Colburn and Mary Louisa Ward, - and that Henry Gamaliel Ward, a son, lies buried at White Plains near New York, while the remains of a nephew, Stephen Ward Burchmore of Hartford, who earned some local reputation as a writer, have been brought here for burial.
