Nancy Wheldon (1772-1840)
Row #1, Grave #308-10-004, GPS 41.41678 N - 71.97185 W
Nancy Wheldon was born about 1772 in Stonington , New London , CT. On 16 Dec 1792, she married Andrew Gallup in Groton , New
London , CT. They were married by Rev. Valentine W. Ratburn. There is a vital record of this marriage.
She was
only 20 years old at the time of her marriage and she was living in Stonington Stonington
It is possible that her maiden name was spelled WELDON. Andrew and
Nancy had six children before Nancy
died on 30 September 1840.
Her gravestone shown here says she was 71 which helps narrow down her birth year but really can't be relied on.
Andrew and Nancy were lucky that they did not lose any children to disease or accident that I can find. Their first child was born in 1794 and the last child was born in 1814. Three are buried in this graveyard.
