Mary probably married in South Carolina, however so many of those marriage records have not survived, that no one to date knows the given name of her husband. If she married in Sevier Co, TN, those marriage records have not survived either.

After Roderick and 3 of his sons moved to Sevier Co, TN in the mid-1820's, his eldest known son, John, moved to Butler Co, AL after the death of his first wife. It appears most of Roderick's known daughters and their families did the same.

Mary is recorded as head of the household on the 1840 Butler Co, AL census. Only two of Mary's children are known -- those shown on the 1850 Butler Co, AL census, Calvin, born abt 1824 in TN who is shown as idiot/insane on censuses, and Mary, born abt 1835 in Alabama.

Family lore has Mary and Calvin buried in the Zion Hill Cemetery in Butler Co, AL, but no headstones have survived.
