Note: Mary Papworth is recorded in the Cambridgeshire Baptism Index 1801-1836. Aged three months, she was the daughter of Richard and Ann Papworth of St. Peters Street in Cambridge. She was baptised at Cambridge St Peter in 1813.
On the headstone in the Histon cemetery it states "in her 99th years."
Note: Mary was residing at Green Hill, Histon. Living with her were her daughter Ann, aged 43 years, and her nephew George Tollidy, a carpenter, aged 34.
Mary lived a very long life. She died when she was 98 years old, nearly 99. Wouldn't we love to hear her stories?
