The following account memorializing the death of Jonathan Basford’s wife, Elizabeth (Marden) Basford, was found on a separate paper in the Diana Basford/Luther Coombs Bible, presumably written by Jonathan Basford:

Elizabeth Marden wife of Jonathan Basford – Born September 15^th 1773 in Chester – State of New Hampshire – Died February 24^th at ½ past 6 o’clock P. M. with a pulmonary consumption with the greatest composure of mind after a lingering sickness of about three years – her confinement was about three months – And intered Wednesday the 27^th of Said February in the burying ground near the Methodist Meeting-house in Belfast – Prayer by the Rev Mr Wells – Methodist Divine.
