    • From Findagrave:

      According to the Vital Records of Rhode Island, 1638-1899 by James Arnold 1903, Vol 13: Newspaper:Deaths, page 501, Joanna Horton died in Providence, Providence County, Rhode Island.

      The death notice on April 30, 1813 from the Providence Gazette reads: "Mrs. Joanna, widow of Comfort, in this town, in 63d year"

      From the Vital Records of Rhode Island, it appears she died in nearby Providence and was buried in Rehoboth, MA.
