Partial transcription: "In Memory of Sarah Pocock"
Born about 1723 (she's shown as 46 years old in a land document that shows her husband--who was born in 1719--as 50 years old)
Her name is Sarah Jones on her marriage record to Daniel Pocock Jr. It is also Sarah on the church registers for the births of their first five children. No mention of Eleanor in either.
However, her name is shown as "Eleanor POCOCK" in a source which also shows their marriage date as 1736 (it is actually 1751 per the church register).
The death date on her tombstone is unreadable today (and unreadable in a 1982 survey of My Ladys Cemetery). Perhaps it was readable in 1930 when Voorhees claims it was 8 Feb 1818.
