Sibley Graves in Elgin County

Mary (sometimes called Polly) Sibley was the second wife of Deacon William Davis, and the mother of a number of his children.  I haven't had much luck tracing birth records for her, although her census records all state that she was born in Nova Scotia circa 1800.  I have come upon some images of gravestones for a David Sibley and his wife Elizabeth in a Baptist cemetery in Elgin county (the Estherville Cemetery) -- could these be relatives of Mary's -- perhaps even her parents?

David Sibley, Died Sept. 7, 1850, AE 76 Y'RS, 1 MO. & 21 DAYS.




Elizabeth, wife of David Sibley, who died July 7th A.D. 1844, in the 73rd year of her age.

Cordelia died Sept. 8, 1819, AE 4 y's 1 mo. 23 ds.
