I was reading the book "The Story of Grand Rapids" by Z.Z. Lydens, page 533.
It says the transcription of her tombstone says:
In Memory of Nancy, widow of Jacob Barns, Esq.
Departed this life on the 30th day of April, A.D. 1844, aged 43 years.
She was a native of Washington County, Vermont.
Requiescat in Pace.
