Born c.1792, Mrs. Wilcox, nee Maria Thompson, was the wife of Anson Wilcox. Cemetery records state that she died at age 65, but that the year of her death is unclear, given as "1857 or 1847" in a 1960's gravestone transcription. According to census records, however, she and her husband were alive and residing in Fleming, NY in the year 1855, which rules out the 1847 death date.
The daughter of the Hon. Jesse Thompson and the former Elizabeth Pugsley, Maria Thompson Wilcox was a first cousin of New York governor and U.S. Congressman Enos Thompson Throop. Her grave is near those of her parents and her paternal aunt, Abia Thompson Throop Hatch.
