On the tombstone in the Old Loyalist Burying Ground in Saint John, N.B. is inscribed: "Sacred to the memory of Obadiah Akerley who died February 28,1843 in the 87th year of his life. Also of Catherine, his wife who departed this life February 18, 1829 aged 72 years" Obediah then would have been born in 1756 and Catherine in 1757.
