Second marriage to Thomas Barney
October 9, 2017
Farnsworth Memorial states she had a second marriage to "Thomas Barney", but there are so many Thomas Barney entries and each one that gets added starts having other people add additional "details" to him that invalid it being a possible spouse to Mary. Hopefully some day someone will be able to find records to indicate which Thomas Barney it was that she married.
Moses Franklin Farnsworth, Farnsworth Memorial, L. A. Lauber, Publisher. Manti, Utah 1897, Page 327. "Reuben ... he d. about 1755, and his wid. m (2) Thomas Barney, a mason by trade."

1753 death date probably not correct
January 10, 2011
The 1753 death date is not correct if she survived Reuben Farnsworth and then married Thomas Barney as Farnsworth Memorial states since Reuben Farnsworth died about 1755.

Source for Reuben Farnsworth/Mary Holden's Watertown, Massachusetts marriage
January 10, 2011
I added it as a source as well, but there are so many entires it may be hard to find.
Watertown, Massachusetts, Town Records, Page 87, Denver Public Library, Central Branch, 10 W Fourteenth Ave Pkwy, Denver CO 80204, USA, GS 929.1744 W317wa V1,2,3 (3 volumes).
These were typed books and the page numbers varied from the earlier records I'd checked.
"Apr 7, 1730 Ruben Farnsworth and Mary Holdin both of Watertown were joyned in marriage by ye Rev mr Seth Storer."
