Note: Rachel has neither a birth nor a death record in VT; she has a transcription of her gravestone done in December 1919, more than 125 years after her death, which passes for a "death record" at Ancestry.com. The transcriber indicates incorrectly that she was 31 years old and calculates that she was born in 1762. Both points are incorrect.
