It's a notable coincidence she is supposed to have been (a) born in Widford, Essex, England; which is here:
...and then (b) died in some town notionally called Widford, Middlesex county, (implicitly Massachusetts ie near Boston?), "U.S." (which is an pre-1776 anachronism so violates WikiTree placename policy conventions); which is a non-existent place as far as I know:
However, Chelmsford Mass does exist (which may be relevant as Widford was a village within the town of Chelmsford in England, so perhaps the emigrants recreated both in Massachusetts?) which was settled about a decade before this woman died... so it is not totally impossible (at least on its face) she could have died in then-frontier-ish outskirts of Middlesex county, given her children were born in Boston ~30 miles away. Maybe she moved with a son or lived with a daughter as a widow, for example?
However, it is conspicuous her attached husband was also born in a Widford, but we say Widford, Hertfordshire, England not Widford (in Chelmsford in) Essex county. These are two real places about ~25 miles away, so again we can't dismiss this possibility on its face but should double-check the primary source evidence which proves the "triple Widford" coincidence for this family group is factual history. Here is a map showing the two Widfords nearby in England:
