Comments

I agree that Mary Beardsley that was married to Ezra Beardsley was not the Mary Ann Beardsley that was married to Jesse Beardsley.

Mary, who was married to Ezra, is with her daughter and son-in-law (Marilla Nancy and Hiram Morse) in the 1860 census.

Still looking for Mary who was married to Ezra in the 1850 (when she would have been widowed).
