Our Mother

This rounded top gravestone marked with the words "Our Mother" reads on this side:

died
May 2, 1861
aged 78 years

Could this be the gravestone of Polly SLACK [dau. of Amos and Molley] born 1783 and who was married to Avery Denison NOYES on 13 Feb 1799 [Stonington VR]?

Polly was the wife of Avery NOYES and mother of twelve children.

This stone is situated near the graves of Fanny NOYES Moxley, Prudence W. NOYES, Avery D. NOYES, and William S. NOYES and is the correctly calculated year from the recorded year of birth.

Could this be the gravestone of Avery Denison NOYES son of Joseph NOYES and Prudence DENISON born 13 Feb 1771?
Avery was the husband of Polly SLACK and father of twelve children. After spending hours searching records, it seems that Avery and Polly have no recorded death dates.

This stone is situated near the graves of Fanny NOYES Moxley, Prudence W. NOYES, Avery D. NOYES, and William S. NOYES and is the correctly calculated year from the recorded year of birth.
