This site includes a photo of a grave marker that indicates she was born in 1805.

However, the marker looks recent, so perhaps it was based on inaccurate information.

Other sites list different birth dates (1801, 1806...)

I'm guessing that the 1801 year comes from the 1850 census, where she's listed as 49 years old.
