There is conflicting information about Martha's age at death. Sandwich Vital Records agree with the inscription shown above which is reported to be on the gravestone. Her actual age at death is 67 based on the birth and death dates. Her death certificate says age 68 at death. According to Natalie Baer, New Bedford Vital Records indicate Martha was born September 13, 1804 which would make her age 69 at death. Photograph supplied by Natalie Baer August 2004.
