Some early tombstones bear odd and interesting epitaphs. One of them is as follows: “Margaret, con­sort of Michael Mechling and formerly widow of Daniel Torney, Sr., near Greensburg, West­moreland county, Pa., who died Sept. 14, 1829, in the 70th year of her age. She left eleven children, 55 grandchildren and seven great-grandchildren of the Torney family. Peace be with her ashes.” [HAC 1914, 119]
