The index files this date as the birth; it is a Sunday, and the same index does the same with William’s baptism at Hartland on 29 Aug 1813, so it is taken as the baptism date.
[S2323] Headstone: Thomas Jeffery (d. 1837), St Andrew’s churchyard, Alwington (Reliability: 3).
The stone gives the 24th of a month beginning “Ju”; the rest is hidden by grass in the photograph. She was buried on 27 Jun 1833, so the month is June.
