I found this article in "The American Cemetery" from Oct 1959, p.46. They are not my family, but I thought this might be useful to someone.
"Forgotten Grave Tells of Pioneer Hardships"
Some months ago a builder, clearing a plot of land for a building development in Columbus, Ohio, came upon a lonely grave that had been forgotten for 121 years. All that is known are the simple words on a small headstone which read: 'In memory of Sarah, wife of Lawrence Grubs and daughter of John and Elizabeth Lofland, who was born July 26 AD 1812 and departed this life July 19 AD 1837, Aged 24 years, 11 months and 23 days.' Her epitaph read:
'Come children dear and view my grave,
Since all your cares could not me save.
And while my flesh lies her to rot,
Do not this warning be forgot.'
Such discoveries are not uncommon in the midwest through which many pioneering families plodded on their way still further west. But this strange burial started a close investigation. The grave was carefully opened and the skeletal remains examined carefully. Coroner Dr. Robert A. Evans deduced the young woman had died in childbirth, largely from the strange nature of the inscription. Records were checked as far back as 1803 and it was determined that the land had never been owned by her husband or her parents, so it was deduced she had died 'en trek', especially since the grave lay just off the old National Road.
The examination of Dr. Raymond Baby, Curator of archeology of the Ohio Historical Society, was more revealing as it spoke eloquently of the hardships of young motherhood in those pioneer days. Only 24 years old, young Mrs. Grubs had evidently had a hard life. All but two of her teeth had been removed. Her left collarbone had been broken and had healed badly, leaving it an inch shorter than the right side. Her spine showed the malformation of arthritis; her leg bones were heavy, and apparently well muscled in life through miles of trudging and carrying burdens. Traces of light brown hair still adhered to the skull.
Her remains were gathered up and reverently re-interred in a nearby cemetery."
The magazine from which this came was a publication for cemetery executives. This was Vol. 31, No. 10. October 1959.
