Daughter of William Saylor and wife of Zachariah Rice. It has been speculated that her mother was not Julianna (Rice) Saylor who was Williams second wife, but his first wife named Claristina (or Christina).
It may be that all of his children were born by the first wife looking at census records and ages of those in the household. His second marriage occurred after the 1830 census and his youngest child had already been born in 1821. Still looking to prove this out.

Based on new information obtained from her father's will*, she appears to have predeceased him so this clarifies the reading of the headstone previously thought to be 1865.
