Caroline (sometimes Carolina), the youngest daughter of Elizur Tryon and Lucy Kilbourn, was born in 1798 in Glastonbury.[1] She died at the age of just over 10 months.[2][3]
She is buried near her elder brother Noah, his wife and son.[4] Her headstone reads: "Caroline daughter or Mr. Elizur and Mrs. Lucy Tryon who died May 13, 1799 aged 10 months".[5]

If we have the Noahs sorted out right, she is not buried next to her brother Noah. She is buried next to her uncle Noah Tryon, his brother David, and her grandmother Penelope. There is also a Fanny Tryon there who seems disconnected from this family at this time.
