1844, but the year is almost certainly in error. A letter dated Feb
1845 from her brother-in-law William mentions that she has been widowed
and living with her infant child at her father's home.
-Tombstone lists name as Melima. Marriage Certificate "Malina
Jane". Book "A Book of strattons 'Mary (?)'; and she signed her own
