- There is also supposedly a Dorothy Belcher who married a Richard Stone, maybe in Staffordshire, but the internet gives many different locations

This profile appears to have been accidentally added as a wife of Simon Stone. The attached daughter's birth and death dates in Watertown match an infant child who died young. Their birth and death locations (Bocking, Essex & Ipswich, Massachusetts), also match what was originally on this profile.
There are trees that show a Dorothy Belcher who married a Richard Stone, possibly in Staffordshire, but there are other locations given as well. It seems like confusion with similar names, and that Dorothy (Belcher) Stone never immigrated to New England.
I agree that there are no indications that she was PGM.
