Her proper name isn't Roberts, that's the surname of her second husband Garrison,
(with whom she had 1 daughter, Harriet Jane Roberts, not to be confused with Harriet Elvira Freeman)
her actual maiden name is Lunsford after her father Nimrod Lunsford, her mother is also Jane Estep. I don't have the sources to make pages for them but figured I'd leave it here in case of future confusion.
I would change this information myself but I can't seem to edit her name at birth so I'll leave it here for now till a WikiTree-er better than I can resolve the situation.
