The death records indicate that Mary Jane died in 1858,
tho she shows up in
the census in 1860, ?????.
Age at death was 51.(or so they say, but then the census records
indicate that
possibly she didn't know how old she was)
Karyn's death records book says Mary Jane was born in Va., not Ga.
Her parents were
from Petersburg, Va.
Karyn says this has confused her often, but it is a fact that Wm and
Mary Jane married in Livingston Co., Ky.
