Source:Leonard, Ermina Newton. Newton Genealogy makes a possibly ridiculuous suggestion that this is the Ruth Stone who married Marlborough 1719 Joseph Newton, pairing a 19-year old girl with a 69-yearold husband. Instead, his wife is suspected of being a more age-appropriate Ruth Stone, as discussed here.
