Calvinist Baptist Cemetery, Marker #5

(1861-1862)

Delilah was born about Nov 1861 and died 16 Oct 1862, age 11 months. The cause of her death is not known. Some sources say she was born 9 March 1861; however, we have chosen to calculate her birth date from the information on her grave marker which gives her age and date of death

Delilah was the daughter of Joseph Robbins and Mary (Chute) Raymond. Her mother is buried in the same cemetery near her. Three brothers, who died between the ages of 19 and 32 are named on a grave marker nearby. A sister and another brother who both died in childhood are also buried there and named on the same marker as Delilah.

Delilah is a Mayflower descendant. Through her father she is descended from Mayflower passengers Isaac Allerton, John Billington, John Howland, John Tilley and Richard Warren.

More about Delilah, her parents and siblings appears in the Old Stones Family Group Sheet Index.
