Thank you, yes my grandfather (WRD Jr) is buried at Mount Auburn with the rest of the family including my parents. He was definitely not born in Newburyport though as he was born at home in Newton (Massachusetts, Birth Records, 1840-1915). I haven't figured out how best to cite sources here, but will do so in time. Thanks You!
