No Stone. Age at death: 66.

Wife of Israel Adams, listed as a member of the Congregational Church. Possibly a mother to Darius Adams, buried same plot. Have not found record of Israel Adam's burial, although the Manhattan Nationalist lists him as passing away March, 1896, in Manhattan.

"Ancestry" lists a Betsey E. Stearns (b. 1814, in Bethel, Maine) as marrying Israel Adams and having at least 4 children, the only surviving, Darius, born 1844. The page also states she married "Isaac" Adams (error or possible duplicate). Parents listed are Charles and Thankful Bartlett Stearns.
