Family Mary Marcy Johnson, b. Abt 1754, RI , d. 26 Jun 1834, West Greenwich, Kent Co., RI (Age ~ 80 years) Married 5 Nov 1772 Coventry, Kent Co., RI [2, 3] Notes - I am assuming this marriage in Arnold's "Vital Record of Rhode Island" applies to this Levi, because he is identified as "Levi, of Nicholas." They were married by Samuel Wall, Justice. The Rhode Island Cemetery Database confirms these birth dates, and that they are both buried in West Greenwich Historical Cemetery #21.

Levi and Mary lived on Weaver Hill Road in West Greenwich, RI. The house and farm were in the Whitford family for nearly 100 years. The house is still standing and occupied. (See notes for his father Nicholas)
I have made an assumption that Levi and his wife both died in West Greenwich.
