Individual Details

A graveyard was established at Bethabara in 1759 for the use of strangers. The Stranger's Cemetery was organized as a regular Moravian cemetery - in a four part choir system separating in death (as in life) married men & widowers, married women & widows, single men & male children, single women and female children. There is a grave marked "Gideon Wright" placed in 1761 in the corner of the girl's choir quadrant. This grave has been interpreted by some researchers as being that of an infant, Gideon Wright Jr. However, I think it could as well be that of an infant or young daughter of Gideon Wright, especially given that the grave is said to be in the girls' quadrant.

Others have observed this grave and do believe it was definitely that of Gideon Wright, Jr., a male child.
