Record of Burial

The Lee Family (direct descendants) visited this grave site this past year 2010 in October. What to note is the following: the oral history is Patrick was a Yale student who died at the age of 16. His headstone was donated by his fellow students who had deeply admired him.

What us interesting to also note is Patrick was able to solve a mathematical problem which had been sent Oxford and Cambridge for a solution - and neither university was able to make any kind of results. While Patrick was working on the problem he was very sick with severe pneumonia and three (3) days after his found the resolution Patrick died.

There is a poem in his honor to be found in the Yale Magazine. Still searching for student records and to see what the mathematical problem had consisted of for solution.

Respectfull submited,

Patricia B. Illingworth, M.A.L.S., Chief Docent
