Diana, I too have visited the Morris Cemetery and took several photos. I can put some light on some of your questions. First, the John H. Buzzerd buried there is Simeon's oldest son, not his brother. John H Buzzerd is my wife's 2great grandfather. He served in the Pennsylvania 119 Volunteers in Company I along with his brother, Thornton. We have a photo of the tent that they shared at Brandy Station. John died on the first day of battle at Cold Harbor from "a ball to the head". He was initially interred at the ?Chesterland? cemetery and later interred in the Morris cemetery. He was married to Sallie A. Sloyer who eventually petitioned for a pension in John Buzzerd's name. Although I have no proof, it seems that the marriage between John and Sallie was not to Simeon's liking.
Regarding Ephraim T PEARCE and wife Mary L., she was Simeon's fifth child.
Unfortionately, I don't know who Lewis S. Buzzerd but based on the year of his birth, he must have been a grandson of Simeon probably the son of Simeon B. or Phenius Buzzerd. I also must have missed Lewis's stone at the Morris Cemetery.
I have quite a bit on this family and I'm willing to share as time permits.
