Born near Baltimore, Maryland in 1787; maiden name was Manning. Her father was an officer on Geo. Washington's staff.

The obituary doesn't mention burial location, but it's possible that she was buried in Bailey Cemetery, Chalmers Twp, southwest of Macomb, IL, since that's where her daughter Mary was buried the following year, according to Mary Hindman Cale's obituary.
