Biography

Mercy was the daughter of Constant Southworth and Rebecca Simmons. She passed away in 1797.

^{[1] [2]} The Southworth genealogy suggests a birthdate of 1707, but this is unlikely. Her parents were married in 1714/15. It may be an incorrect transcription of 1717. That would fit in well since she was the third child.
