Female Stranger

The Female Stranger was a woman who died anonymously on October 14, 1816 in Alexandria, Virginia. She was buried in the local St. Paul's Cemetery, with a monument erected supposedly by her husband, but which only identifies her as the "female stranger" along with the epitaph. The unusual monument and story surrounding it have long been noted as a peculiar oddity of the town.^{[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9]}
