Biography

Born 17 Feb 1768. Cornwall, Addison County, Vermont, USA. [2][3]

Note: She was baptized on February 21, 1768 in Woodbury, Litchfield, CT, four days after her birth. So, although she has a birth record in Vermont, I believe she was born in [4] and the record in Vermont reflects only a report of her birth date.
