    Lydia Ashburnham, d/o Jonathan Oak and Rebecca Barnard, b. Stow 6 Jun 1743 [see following comment], d. Brandon, VT, "2 (or 4)" Jan 1802, m. 29 Nov 1766 "(or Nov. 19, 1767, Bible)" Ebenezer Conant.
    [Note: No birth record found. Presumably the source of this data is the "Bible" referred to in Source:Conant, Frederick Odell. Conant Genealogy, p. 237, kept by son John Conant. The location of Stow may be an assumption based on her being warned out of Stow in 1762, which is probably a poor indicator, but that is a guess since the basis of that assertion is not explained. See also comments attached to gravestone citation.]

    [Note: the stone is weathered and hard to read, in particular, the dates cannot be made out. The memorial page says 2 Jan 1802, but there be a case for arguing it says 5 not 2? The record cited above is based on a reading made in 1920 by the town clerk, presumably when the stone was in better shape.]
