I saw her headstone in the cemetary. It had 2? Apr 1803, died, Sep 26 (??)1856.
Named Jr. to distinguish him from his uncle (David's brother). His death was reported in the Canal and Portage Register, Dec 28, 1836.

Burial site is Section 22, Lot 28. There are some LeFevres there also.
The headstone says 6/2/1800 - 16 jul 1872. This doesn't make much sense if the mother was born in 1803. I gor Mary's information off of the headstone.
