She married John M Rice in late November 1826. John obtained the license for the marriage on 28 November 1826 in Green County Kentucky.[2] They were the parents of ten children:
The last record we have of Mary is the 1870 census.
Research Notes
Her husband John Rice died in 1888, however have not found the 1880 census for him. Need to research children to determine if they could possibly be in one of their households
