1st Lt. Vincent Marie Boisaubin-- Part 2: Gravestone Etched in French

Two graveyards on the American side of the Niagara River have some interesting grave markers.

In the military graveyard at Fort Niagara which has an eventful history, having at times been in the hands of the French, British, Indians and Americans there is a singular  trace of the American occupation if Fort George in 1813.

A young Frenchman, perhaps a son of those of that nationality helped the 13 Colonies to gain their independence is buried there.  His gravestone is written entirely in French.

Translation:  Here lies Boisaubin Marie Vincent, Lieutenant and Adjutant in the light artillery regiment  of US, who died at Fort George August 13, 1813, at age 22 years, faithful friend, tender and  sincere son..."

I haven't been able to find any further information on him.
