Research Notes

The 1810 census indicates she was born 1785-1794, the 1820 census 1776-1794, the 1830 census 1791-1800. the 1840 census 1790-1800 so she was born during 1791-1794. The 1850 census indicates she was born about 1793. Find A Grave has 1791. If born in either 1791 or 1793, she would have been too to be the mother of the 3 unidentified males born 1795-1804 and the unidentified female born 1795-1804 who are in the household in the 1820 census as she was barely old enough to have been the mother of Ann born 1808 and Abraham born 1809..
