Biography
Mercy was born in 1763, daughter of Samuel Phetteplace and Ruth Phillips.
Very little is known of Mercy other than she was the wife of Edward Arnold.
On an Ancestry database called "U.S. Pensioners, 1818-1872" Mercy is listed as the widow of Pvt. Edward Arnold living in Albany, New York, and collecting a pension up through September 1848 based on Edward's Revolutionary War service.
The headstone pictured on her FindAGrave memorial shows she passed away in 1854.
