!NOTES:Maiden name given as Mary Farley on D/C of son Molton & dau Fannie & D/C of dau Lula.
* Maiden name Mary Mitchell per D/C of dau Orpha.;
!NOTES:Based upon the number of D/C for her children that listed her as Mary "Farley" there must be something to that. Perhaps her father was a Farley and she was born out of wedlock, that could explain it. She was listed as a Mitchell on the 1870 census and in William Davis's family bible.;
