Hi, Grace,
And I am sorry to be tardy in thanking you for your reply. In my records, I show Mary Melissa as "Mary Melvina" --- it was hand written by a cousin in MS (assume it was from another written census record --- don't know). Shows she was born in 1861, and died in Columbus (or Columbia), Lowndes Co., MS. Anything on that?

Thanks, Don
