It's not often that we get to find out the name of the stonecutter who prepared the tombstones of our ancestors. We are fortunate enough to know the name of the artisan in the case of Adam Drach; his wife, Catherine; their daughter, Catherine and yet another Catherine, daughter of Henry & Elizabeth Drach below.
