- ↑ 5.0 5.1 The town records say Feby. Original here. It can't really be interpreted as July. However, it is written after the death record of the husband who d. 1817, indicating it was recorded after the fact (i.e., based on memory or unknown records).
The gravestone says July. The provenance of the gravestone is unknown. It is in great shape, so it is not obvious if it was put up at the time, or erected by a descendant (i.e., after the fact and not based on first-hand knowledge). There does not appear to be a gravestone for her husband?
