    Notes:

    Listed as Mary M. WILLIAMS, age 1, at the time of the 1880 census, and as Mamie M. DONOVAN, age 21, in 1900. Melba Gene McLemore writes that she was in touch with some of Mary's descendants, living in Alaska. They always knew her last name a Donovan, as apparently she used that name from the time she was a young girl. It appears she was adopted, either formally or informally, by her mother's second husband.

    She is listed as follows on the California Death Records at Rootsweb:
