Maria's granddaughter, Olive (Traver) Smith was my 2x Great Grandmother. She passed on letters and other items to her grandson and my great-uncle Carl Cox. He in turn shared that information and copies of letters with my grandmother Leola (Sharp) Cox and others in the family. I have seen a copy of the original letter Olive's step-grandfather Isaac Pillsbury III wrote to her confirming when her mother, Addie Hodges was born, her parents Cyrus Hodges and Maria (Swift) Pillsbury were married.Boy-41 15:40, 10 May 2019 (UTC)
