(date on her stone is much different - the dates I put in are from Oakwood's records - the entry was made very early in the records - in with the 1865 burials - so even though the stone says 1875, I think the 1865 date is correct).
She is living with her son Charles in the 1860 census - she is 75 years old at that time - and she is not with him in the 1870 census - which also points to her dying in 1865 at age 81 instead of 1875.
