Nancy Ann Chew was born 24 Apr 1741 around Chews Landing in Gloucester Township and County, New Jersey. Her family had lived in that area for some time. She was the daughter of Thomas Chew and Mary Wood.
Ann married Josiah Albertson abt 1766. Their children are listed on her husband's memorial.
Her headstone is too far gone now to be able to make out the detail and there is discrepancy as to her death date and age.
Sources:
3 out of the 4 sources say she died 25 May 1822, not 25 Mar.
One of the 3 sources was Leon and Gladys Walford who checked the headstone 20 Jul 1983. They reported her death as 25 May 1822.
Now, regarding her age.
a. The 1983 reading says 81Y 1M 4D
b. The 1988 reading says 81Y 4M 1D
c. Genealogy of the Chew Family, p. 210. (c) 1982 by Robert L. Chew, Pub by The Gloucester County Historical Society is going with 81Y 1M 1D.
d. Colonial & Revolutionary Lineages of America, Vol II, p. 448. The American Historical Company, Inc. 1944, which says she was b: 24 Apr 1741 d: 25 May 1822, 81Y 1M 1D.
e. Horace Reven reading says 81Y 1M 1D.
Based on the consensus of what the 3 of them agree with, 81Y 1M 1D, I calculated her birth date at 24 Apr 1741.
