Notes
General:
On July 1, 2020 Find-a-Grave Memorial # 107597751 states that she died August 11, 1858 at the age of 80 years. Based on my examination of the photo of the gravestone, '1858' could be '1853'. Her age in years looks more like 60 than 80, but 60 is not plausible. I'll go with 80. I cannot read the number of months or days. "SARAH WIFE OF ELISHA CURTIS" is easily readable.
