Daughter of Edward & Mary (Clark) Gilman.

2nd Wife of John Leavitt

Mother of:
Israel, Moses, Josiah, Nehemiah, Sarah, Mary, and Hannah.

Her remains are believed to be buried in the tomb between her son Israel on Left and her Husband John on Right.

Note: John Leavitt gravestone and remains are today in the graveyard at Hingham Center, not far from Old Ship Church. He was probably initially interred in front of the church, and was among the early settlers whose graves were moved when the road in front of the house of worship was widened, necessitating removal of the earliest graves, which where located in front of the church instead of behind it, where the church's current graveyard was later located. Leavitt's tombstone and remains were then likely removed to the Hingham Center Cemetery.
