Message: The Mehetable P. Handy on the stone monument I believe is Mehetable Pope Handy that married Jabez/Jabes Handy. Jabez & Mehetable had a daughter named Mehetable, but according to Family Search she did not die in New York, and was NOT young. Mehetable that was the daughter of Jabez Handy & Mehetable (Pope) Fish Handy was born on 12/31/1766 in Sandwich Mass. and died in Leeds Maine on 2/27/1842. Two things: 1. There are two memorials for a 5 year old Mehetable in the same Cemetery as Jabez & Mehetable; 2. The daughter lived to be 76 not 5.
Mehetable P. Handy and her husband Jebez' names are BOTH on the stone.

I found a copy of a transcription of the burials at the Albert Pierce Farm. It has a Mahitabel Pope Handy (1802 - 1808), memorial# 128868592, and her grandparents. I linked her to her father, Elisha Handy, # 124187396, and made a linked comment to this memorial. Also requested that Elisha be linked to his parents.
I think they are the same person. Where is she actually buried? Was she moved from the Albert Pierce Farm to be by her father?
