Mary was married, at the age of 18, at Wethersfield, Hartford Co., Connecticut, 9 August 1821, to Elisha Belden, by William BENTLEY, Minister of the Gospel of Christ [Wethersfield VR, Marr., Vol. 2, p. 214].
Mary and her son Franklin, who died two years after her, share a headstone, now broken (June 2013).
Mary died about the time her son Franklin was born, leading one to wonder whether she died of some complication of his birth.
