 Stoddard became ill with consumption, and about the year 1818, she removed with her family to Blakeley, Alabama, where Dr. Stoddard soon after died.Partially recovering her own health, she revisited Troy; but the severity of the climate induced her to return to Blakeley, where, they died within a year of one another, Mrs. Stoddard's death probably hastened by grief for her husband.She died November 8, 1820, and was buried at the Blakeley Cemetery.
