    yeoman, deceased, filed a petition in orphans court to partition or evaluate
    Michael's land. The petition stated that Michael died on or about 3 October

    Notes:

    Catharine is believed to be buried in Salem Church cemetery at Gilbert. There
    is no tombstone on her grave.

    It's odd because her supposed death date is the same date she was a sponsor
    at a baptism at Salem. Is that really just thelast day she was known to be alive?
