NOTE: She is not the same person as Grase Fairbank buried in Old Settler's in Lancaster,MA. This memorial for Grace (Fairbanks) Bullen had to be recreated because someone had incorrectly, without regard for genealogical rigor, merged her original memorial in to Grase Fairbank's memorial.

William Biglow, in his 1830 "History of Sherburne,Mass" on pp.18-19 refers to a gravestone found near the dwelling house of Isaac Cozens and preserved in a faced stone wall. It is said to have read "Here lyes the body of Grace Bullen who died August 11 1689 in ye 26th year of her age". The stone was said to have been intended to be erected in the central yard, in memory of the person whose name it bears, but it was not procured till her friends had forgotten where they laid her.

Children: included Mary Bullen Sherman, Ephraim Bullen Jr, John Bullen, and Grace Bullen. Perhaps others.
