Research Notes
- Her first name was Mirab. She was misinterpreted as Mary, Mabe, Mara on census records. She is referred to as Mirab on her father James Oates' estate distribution, her indenture with her brother James Oates, her mother Mary's Last Will and Testament, and her payments from her husband Alfred's estate.
- Looked for her Possible 2nd Marriage, and a Marriage came up to a Daniel Morgan (transcribed as Margan). No ages or whether either had been previously married is stated. Daniel married Mary A. Brown on 29 July 1857 in Fayette, Georgia, United States.[4]

In 1880 the census taker combined the names of the two youngest boys Wiley and Jefferson. Betsey and Elisha had lost their home to fire. Betsy, her Mom and the younger children were living with my G.Grandfather, Noah Jackson while Elisha rebuilt their home.
