Lydia Wheeler born 2 Sep 1789 (?)

Tombstone reads:
Lydia
his wife
died
March 3, 1875
Aged 85 years 6 months 1 dy

"from the tombstone information, her birth date would be calculated to September 2, 1789."

epitaph on bottom is partially buried and first word is unreadable.
"____grows in the sight of the Lord
is the Lord__________"

She married Erastus Wright on 6 Sep 1810 in Dover, Windham County, Vermont or in New York State.

She died in Wellsville, New York, but I am not sure of what County that is in, as there are two Wellsville, New Yorks.

The 1850 Census says Lydia was born in New Hampshire, but the 1860 and 1870 Census records say Lydia was born in Vermont.
