269. Major Win. Treadwell; d. Ap. 10; a. 46. His epitaph
is this : " Ile enter'd the army in 1775, and devoted his whole
time to the service of his Country, until the Independence of
America was secured ; he ever courted the field of battle, &
his military ardour and bravery were indisputable."
[" his body was committed to the grave with military honors." It would seem from the lines found in the Mass. Spy of Ap. 22, 1795, that he was unfortunate in his pecuniary affairs, and died a lingering victim to despair caused by his sudden poverty. See Line. Hist. 331.]

Lovely in death, the beauteous ruin lay." (Epitaph.)

A Note About These Pages

This is the total extent of what I currently have on cemetaries in Worcester.

I don't have a list of graves from any other cemetaries available.

I don't know how to find your long lost relatives online, etc.

Futher information on this subject can be probably be found at the Worcester Historical Society. I'm not a member, and don't know much about what they have, but I'm sure it's more than I have.
