Biography

Nancy married Jeremiah Mize and had 2 children.
After death of her husband Jeremiah Mize Jr. (ca 1812, Union Co SC), she adopted out her sons Thomas and his older brother, John J. Mize b abt 1806 SC.
This was prior to her remarriage to Rev War Vet. James McDonald (they had 3 sons and 2 daughters together).
She passed away on 1856 in Franklin, Georgia, USA.
It is disputed whether Frederick McDonald is the son of Nancy Bailey, or of James McDonald's first wife, Nancy Carruthers.
