She was born in VT. Married 20 Nov 1823 Stafford, Genesee Co, NY. See obit of her husband Andrew Crocker.

I believe her sister to be Mary Watson Richmond - Find-a-Grave # 61264564 and that their father was Eliphalet Watson.

Her husband descends from John Alden & Priscilla Mullins of the Mayflower. There is more biographical info under the husbands of Polly Crocker Wilcox and Cynthia Crocker Jackson. Alice M. Hunt Crocker, second wife of Willis W Crocker, saved a family bible that Alden Society has a copy.

Of note is that the bible has been written over and the Alden society has a death date of 1868. Her husband's obit, however, says she died 5 years after they arrived in Jackson Co, MI, in 1857. Moreover, Andrew remarried in the fall of 1863 so 1862 is the most logical death year for Polly Watson Crocker.

It is unknown where they are buried.
