• Notes

  The Fawcetts are buried together at the Bluemont Cemetery in Grafton. Their graves are marked by an upright stone in the shape of a tree stump with an opened bible on the top. They rest in proximity to the graves of William's cousins, Charles F.W. and Robert Moses Hanshaw, and also of the final resting place of Anna Jarvis, the founder of Mother's Day.
