    'Martha Betts, second daughter, so far as appears, of John and Mary Betts, was born in England about 1625. She married, Jan. 16, 1655, Nathaniel Graves of Wethersfield, son of Thomas and Sarah Graves of Hartford and Hadley, born in England in 1629. ... The deaths of himself and wife, as recorded in Wethersfield, are :
    "Nathaniel Graves, Sen. aged about 53 died Sept. 28, 1682."
    "Widow Martha Graves deceased Apr. 13, 1701, ... a 75, as some think." '
