"Mollie Stafford’s birthdate is one of the confusing issues in this family. Her maiden name is O’Connor. She appears at age 5 in the 1870 census and at age 15 in 1880 so I believe 1865 is her accurate birth year. In subsequent years her date of birth varied from 1867 to 1872. 1873 is inscribed on her marker."

M/1st - Charles Newton Stevenson, father of all of her children.
M/2nd - Jonas Griffith Stafford. No issue. Sixteen years younger than she, which may explain Mollie's varying birth dates.
