Notes for Fielder (Spouse 1)
Fielder was the youngest child of Haswell Magruder and his wife, Charity Beall.
He inherited "Brotherhood Enlarged" to which he added 340 acres of "Crawford's Adventure" plus Whittentine and Hudson's Range. When he died, his heirs divided the 855 acres, all in Prince George's County, Maryland.
Fielder was disinterred from the Magruder Family Cemetery in the 1960s and reburied at Fort Lincoln Cemetery. The beautiful family memorials could not be moved for his family members due to cemetery regulations. All now have a plain marker and there is a simple headstone for each group.
The new marker for Fielder was inscribed incorrectly.
Inscription
The ORIGINAL marker in the family cemetery read:
In Memory of Fielder Magruder, died August 5 1840, Aged 60 years.
