Note: This record lists her year of death as 1822; however, a volunteer sent a note giving her year of death as 1855, and her maiden name as Batchelder. Looking at the photo of the grave stone, the death year looks like 1852.

Viewing the 1850 census, Barre, VT, she is listed as age 46, born Vermont. If she died in 1855, she would have been born c1804, so this would have made her about 51 years old at her death. If the year of death on her stone (1852) is her correct death year, then she would have been about age 48 at her death, which is closer to the recorded age on the Barre, VT town clerk's burial record.
