- The Graves family website has the year of marriage as 1780, while the Cummington, MA, VRs (published transcription) says 1790.
The pension application states that Ruth was married in the winter after she was 32 years old, which would make it 1788. At the time she made that statement, Ruth was in her 80s and may have forgotton the exact details.
