CEMSearch: Name: Carge? Chard; Born: 1774?; Died: 1813-08-06; AgE: 39y 6m 6d; Notes: Stone hard to read, first name unclear; Buried: Stirling Cemetery, Sec I; No other names.
Note: This stone was partially under the grass and had to be cleared of sod and dirt in order to make out the inscription. The name "Barce" becomes clear once you get it cleaned off and look close. The year is less obvious; It certainly looks like 1813 since there is little evidence of any indentation to the left of the deep gash of the 1. There is a small mark and there is more than normal space between the 8 and the large gash of the 4. The spacing alone suggests it was once a 4. It also must be 1843 so the age of 79 years fits - if death is 1843 and birth 1764.^3,7
