Have listed below who I think this Nancy J Roberts married; however the census showed he married another Nancy J that sometimes was listed as Jane Coon born about the same time. Closely looking at the census records shows the marriage dates and how they differ. Will list their children's names at a later date. If someone has proof otherwise, please let me know.Marshall-7457 17:31, 10 November 2020 (UTC)

1850 & 1860 Census
Due to census records and the recording of marriage dates on the 1870 census, I believe this Nancy J is the first wife of William A. Roberts son of Wade Hampton Roberts that was born in Pike County, Mississippi.
1870 Census, Lincoln County, Mississippi, listed as W. A. Roberts 22, N. J. Roberts 23, the census listed the fancy writing of the N. as an A. They lived next to his father, Wade Hampton Roberts said b Louisiana.The census stated they married in February. She was not listed in hh of her father.Marshall-7457 17:27, 10 November 2020 (UTC)
