Mary was born 1/5/1881 in SC and died 5/10/1919. Her husband was Amly Elisha Sauls. She is buried in Grove Hill Cemetery in Darlington, SC, next to her mother, Mrs. A.L. Frier, Sr. Her father, A.L. Frier, Sr may be buried there. Her mother's maiden name may be Mary Elizabeth Cannon. Possible siblings or cousins are : Judge Baggett Frier, John Frier, Betsy Frier (married Martin Hines (sp?)). In the 1930 census, I found an Aron L. Fryar in Darlington, but wrong generation. The Frier connection seems to be a roadblock for me. Can't make a positive connection. All help appreciated.
