There is a strange tale connected with this burial. It is said that Elizabeth was originally buried somewhere else and that Merrill Isaac moved her to the family plot in the Blossom Cemetery probably within a couple of years. When the casket was exhumed, her hair had grown out the box and the body had rolled over. It was then assumed that she had been buried while in a deep coma and still alive!. 1
