Jemima Ball

I can't read the headstone inscription enough to get birth date or death year for Jemima.

Spouse: James Thomas (1776 - 1/11/1838). Buried in Alexandria, Virginia at the Methodist Protestant Cemetery. He was a tavern keeper by trade. His headstone inscription: "Sacred to the memory of James Thomas who departed this life January 11, 1838 in the 62nd year of his age. Upright and honest in all the relations of life he died as he had lived, respected by all who knew him. An honest man the noblest work of God.

Court action: "George, Ira Thomas, William Thomas and James Thomas (on behalf of Mary Ann and Emily Thomas, (minors w)ho are the only surviving children of Jemima Thomas, daughter of James, son of Moses Ball (Sr.), appointed the same Atty. Ackn. bef. N. Keene, J. of P. District of Columbia, Alexander Co. 29 June 1835."
