death date [11 December 2020]

I removed the unsourced death date of 10 Jun 1758. I found one source that said she died after 10 Jun 1758. This is the date her husband's will was proved. She is named in her husband's will, which was written 5 Jan 1747/48, but she is not mentioned anywhere else in the probate file. Her son Thomas was the executor and there is no assent to proving of the will, no accounting (i.e., to show any payments, etc., to or for her), no setting out of dower, or reversion of it. So there is no evidence given that she was alive on that date, though she may well have been. But any assertion that she was, would need additional evidence, without which it is only assumption. --Jrich 14:54, 11 December 2020 (UTC)
