I don’t plan to edit her name but I’ve failed to locate this unusual spelling. Every record I have has Priscilla spelled in the normal manner. Torrey has Priscilla. She’s indexed as Priscilla Bearse in Misc Record Vol 185-186; Wills Vol 188, 196, 1900-1920; Probate Docket Vol 16, No. Z1-Z623, 1760- Findagrave photos unclear. The creator of the memorial was kind enough to include a disclaimer saying she was unproven per Savage.
