Lemuel was born 06 Jan 1793 in Lee Plantation, Maine, and died 01 Dec 1841 in Monroe, Waldo County, Maine. Mercy was born 06 Jan 1799, and died 04 Sep 1881 in Monroe, Waldo County, Maine. They were married 7 Nov 1822. The inscription on the marker is difficult to read but it is clear that toddler Stephen K. Curtis is buried with his infant brother Martin Van Buren Curtis. The marker appears to give Stephen's death date as "Dec 3 1825" which would be at variance with published genealogical data which states that he was b. 10 Aug 1823, Monroe, Waldo County, Maine; d. 21 Aug 1825, Monroe, Waldo County, Maine. This would have made him 2 ys, 11 mos at the time of his death. Siblings of Martin Van Buren and Stephen K. Curtis included: 1. Catherine Curtis, b. 21 Jul 1827, Monroe, Maine. 2. Osmon Edwards Curtis, b. 25 Sep 1828, Monroe, Maine 3. Lemuel Waldo Curtis, b. 31 Aug 1832, Monroe, Maine. 4. Andrew Jackson Curtis, b. 07 Mar 1838, Monroe, Maine. 5. Stephen Otis Curtis, b. 09 Dec 1840, Monroe, Maine. 6. William Henry Curtis, b. 05 Dec 1841, Monroe, Maine. Lemuel Curtis made his political leanings known with the choice of his children's names - Andrew Jackson and Martin Van Buren Curtis! He named two sons Stephen.
