Married ca. 1853 to William Green "Willie" SISEMORE (his second wife), son of Thomas SIZEMORE (mother's name not known). Mary is the mother of nine children by Willie. Evidently this grave is not marked.

Willie's father, Thomas, is believed to be the son of Henry "Tal" & Abigail (UNKNOWN) SIZEMORE of South Carolina and Gwinnett County, Georgia. Thomas drew land in the 1827 Georgia Land Lottery. He heads a household on the census of Gwinnett County, Georgia (1830), Carroll County, Georgia (1840), and Benton County, Alabama (1850); the name of Benton County was changed in 1852 to Calhoun County, where Thomas heads a household in 1860.

Willie's uncle: William SIZEMORE

Willie's possible aunt: Mary Arnett (SIZEMORE) CRUCE

I had put this memorial at Brooks Chapel Cemetery in Quitman, LA, where her husband has a marked grave; I supposed she was unmarked there. However, on 22 FEB 2020, Roy Todd Harvey Contributor #48961623 reports: Buried in Preston Bend Cemetery in Pottsboro, Texas, Grayson Co. Proof from official Texas Death Certificate. Also, middle initial "E." stands for Elizabeth.
