Steere Monument in the Glocester Country Club

Submitted by Beth Hurd, 10 July 2004. The above monument is in "a small cemetery (GL052 [Cooman Lot]) on the grounds of what is now the Glocester Country Club (celebrating its 75th year), but was once a 'cow pasture'... most of the stones are worn field stones, but someone (the Steere family foundation) went to the trouble to record the interments and have the names and dates inscribed on one big monument, which I photographed. The stone reads: In Memory of Samuel Steere, 1673 - 1745     (son of John Steere, 1634 - 1711) Hannah Field     (wife of Samuel Steere) Urania Steere,    -1785     (daughter of Samuel Steere) Jonah Steere, 1720 - 1798)     (son of Samuel Steere) Lydia Whipple, 1725 - 1779     (wife of Jonah Steere) Nicholas Steere, 1763 -     (son of Jonah Steere) Nehemiah Steere, 1765 - 1822     (son of Jonah Steere) Rachel Harris, 1766 - 1852     (wife of Nehemiah Steere) Drusilla Steere, 1789 - 1873     (daughter of Nehemiah Steere) Ira Steere, 1794 - 1795     (son of Nehemiah Steere) Martha Steere, 1797 - 1869     (daughter of Nehemiah Steere) Lydia Steere, 1802 - 1874     (daughter of Nehemiah Steere) William Coman,    - 1772     (husband of Urania Steere) Alse Coman, 1732 - 1772 William Coman, Jr., 1735 - 1822 Chloe Coman, 1766 - 1838 David Coman, 1768 - 1778 The above individuals are recorded as buried in this cemetery in the official vital records of the town of Glocester. Placed by the Steere Family Association, 1993.
