Larry Spangler took this very clear photo of Mary's headstone for Find a Grave. The stone is so mottled, I didn't notice at first that her age is engraved on it in days, months and years. This is an important clue for Mary's identity--66 years, 11 months, and 5 days, placing her birth on 6 December 1791.
