[This is all there is in the listing]" " I also have Mary M. in Baltimore Sun Dec 1842 as death (under deaths & marriages,birth?); then Mary Virginia as 7/12 or 7 mos. in 1850 census with family. Mary M. never shows up on a census with the family." "This appears to be a death, she is not listed as Mary M. on any census with her family. She can not be Mary Virginia who is born 1850, shows as 7/12 or 7 mos. on 1850 census with family, then 1860 as age 10 years, therefore, they can not be the same Mary. However, the 1900 census she is with her sister Amanda's family, noted as sister- in-law born Jan 1843. Mary V. died in 1921 and was age 57 years in 1900 which puts her born c. 1843. Is the 1850 7 years and not 7 mos? I can not explain the 1860 age, it is clearly 10 years".
