Cathrine (sic) and Benjamin W. Auxer are buried in Mountville Cemetery along with a small child and next to his parents, Samuel and Martha Wolf Auxer. I have no idea who or what sex the child is.

Benjamin's headstone is very hard to read, but is identified by his name, and the fact that he was a HUSBAND. You can pick out the fact that he was born Aug. 20, 1851 and died in September of either 1893 or 1898

Cathrine, is the spelling on the headstone for Mrs. Benjamin Auxer, not my spelling. Her headstone is a bit easier to read ~ a bit newer, too, I might add! Her headstone reads as follows:

WIFE
CATHRINE AUXER
BORN MAR. 26, 1857
DIED DEC. 22, 1920
Aged 62 yrs 5 mos 26 ds
-----
At rest

Next to Benjamin is a tiny stone that says SAVED and on the next line it appears to say simply BABE. The three stones, Benjamin's, Cathrine's, and their childs are all on one piece of cement.
