Burke reports her to have died in 1837 aged 67.  The Thope Achurch monumental inscriptions reports that she died in 1887 which would make her around 100 what with her marriage in 1807.  I just think the 1887 is a mis-reading of 1837.

Assume that she died in 1837 and was 67 at death.  This makes her born in 1770.  So she married in 1807 at the age of 37 and had five children up to 1818 when she would have been 47, a tad old.

I cannot find any evidence for her baptism or her burial.  She left no will.

It looks like none of her dates can be relied on for lack of evidence.
