Francis Marion Donham died in 1880 before the census was taken and Nancy was listed as a widow, living in Pulaski County, with four of their sons. Apparently, Hattie M. Donham died young.

Nancy remarried to Daniel Jackson Stover December 28, 1881 in Little Rock, Pulaski County, Arkansas. The census stated that Nancy had birthed 7 children and only 1 child was surviving. Robert Floyd Donham is the only child surviving. This is the last record that Nancy and Floyd were found in. After many efforts of finding them in other records, I came to the conclusion that Nancy, Floyd and her husband Daniel Stover were all deceased before 1910 probably in Lonoke County, Arkansas where they resided.
