The only thing we know about her death is an entry in the George McLean Diary on December 17& 18 1847, which states "18 inches Deep on the 18 Cleered up warm Mother Rosecrovnce Departed this Liffe". Entry made on December 19, 1847, "made a coffin price 5 $." We believe the reference to "Mother Rosecrovnce" must have been Nancy as she would have been the only Rosencrance woman old enough to be called "Mother Rosencrance" by her friends and neighbors.

Nancy Simpson 1770-1847 of Beverly, Randolph, WV is NOT daughter of John an Hannah simpson.
Proof is in the 1800 Deed naming all of the kids.
