Research Notes

Find A Grave: Memorial #100170879 inaccurately places her burial in Sleepy Hollow Cemetery, which is a newer cemetery -- not the same cemetery as "Sleepy Hollow churchyard." The Find a Grave Memorial 9917317 has a photo of her grave in the churchyard, now called "Old Dutch Burial Ground."
