The text reads:
Erected
in Memory of
John Paterson
who died the 23 March 1831
aged 84 years
Also
Jean Tweedie his Spouse
who died the 18th Sept. 1821
aged 79 years
William Neil, died at Montreal LC
21st July 1834 aged 55 years
Elisabeth Patterson Neil died at Long Grove
Iowa, US, 2nd December 1866, aged 86 years
Jane Watson Neil, died at Welland, UC
18th January 1865, aged 51 years
Isabella Keel Neil died at Thurald UC
4th February 1861, aged 41
From this I deduce there are 3 generations mentioned here, John Paterson and his wife Jean Tweedie, their daughter Elisabeth Patterson (I presume this is a misspelling and she is a Paterson) Neil and her husband William Neil, and their two daughters Jane and Isabella.
Elisabeth Paterson apparently emigrated to the US as some stage either with her husband or she met her husband there.
