Biography
Mary was born in MS but both of her parents were from AL and they lived in Cullman, AL in 1880 during the census. She and her husband lived with her father Isaac in MS in the 1890 census. It appears she was born before Jan or June of 1878 but the handwriting is hard to read. I will have to do more research on her birth date.
1890 she had one child, Nell Kennedy and had been married 4 years as of 1890

1990 Census is listed here as source but that is definitely as 1990 census is not out yet. What year census is this suppose to be?

Yielding-48 and Yielding-182 appear to represent the same person because: I didn't get any hints of a matching person when I created Mary. But they are the same. Sorry... new to the site, trying to get the hang of it.
