Apparently Eli married Mary Ann twice; 16JUL1879 and 23DEC1881. I would assume there to be a divorce between the two dates. Mary Ann was living with her sister, Sarah, at the time of the 1880 Census. She didn't die until 1918. "Sheila Anderson-Lewis" To: VACARROL-L@rootsweb.com <magickrn@bells cc: (bcc: Ronald W.

Did his wife Mary Ann (Polly) Bolt die after Harvey was born? She is not on the census. Does anyone know why? That would mean she is not the mother of Ennis Lee Spence? So help me here? Also he found Ennis Spence's wife, Dora California Dalton with her family in 1880. She was only a year old in the census. What do we know about Harvey and brother Thomas? Also, Mary Ann, do we have any info on the families of Lucy and Mary, the sisters of Dora C.?
