Although the correct death date is listed on her find a grave entry, the wrong BIRTH date is listed. Instead of listing her actual birth date on 1816, find a grave lists the birth date of her daughter, (also Matilda Leroy), which was 1839. This daughter lived from 1839-1840, which can be seen by looking at the bronze plaque.
We also know that her birthdate could not be 1839, as her mother, Sarah, died in 1831.
