The Old Parish Burying Ground in Windsor, Nova Scotia, the site of the original Anglican Church in Windsor, founded in 1771.
The cemetery accepted burials from 1771 until it closed in 1887, notwithstanding the sign. It contains approximately 4,000 graves, including that of Charles Morris, although the location of his grave cannot be ascertained.

Washington at Valley Forge
George Washington and his ragged shoeless army of 12,000 including Robert Strayhorn, make camp at Valley Forge in Pennsylvania during the winter of 1777-1778, at a low point of the American War of Independence.

Muster Role for Robert Strayhorn dated January 9, 1777
Muster Role for Robert Strayhorn dated January 9, 1777
The National Archives interprets Robert Strain as Robert Strayhorn, and we do not disagree. As most immigrants could not read nor write, scribes simply wrote down how they heard a name pronounced, so 'Strain' was probably a contraction of Strayhorn, pronounced Stray'n.

Washington crossing the Delaware
Washington crossing the Delaware
This famous image, a painting by Emanuel Leutze, shows Washington on Christmas night 1776 crossing the Delaware river in preparation for a surprise attack on the Hessians at Trenton the next morning. While it's unlikely Robert Strayhorn was actually on this boat, he was certainly in the accompanying flotilla that night.
