Hi Cathy,
"In 1797, the family of Abel Skinner followed the Elkins family and settled nearby. In 1799, two of their children, Abel Jr. and Josiah drowned in the Missisquoi while on a canoe trip. Sheltered in a wooded area, one can distinguish the tombstones of Jemima Skinner, Abel Sr's wife [1754-1833], the township's first nurse, Jemima Green [1778-1857],
Ruth Leavenworth [1765-1825], wife of Capt. Moses Elkins and their son, Samuel Elkins [1785-1835], brother of Moses Jr."

Sorry, I do not know if Ruth LEAVENWORTH is the same family you are seeking.
