Notes individuelles

Several sources say that there is a family tradition that Elvira was part Cherokee Indian from NC. A descendant Mike Wilson reports that there are indications, though not specific evidence, that her mother was a full-blood Cherokee.

I originally learned this name as Mary Elvira, and found it that way in the first genealogy I saw. However, some census entries have her as Elvira M. Most genealogy and family sources refer to her as Elvira. The 1850 census lists her as Elvira M Mullins. The 1860 census has E Mary. This seems to confirm the order of her names. But the 1900 census have Mary E.

Mike Taylor, a direct descendant and thorough Mullins researcher, has told me the family knows her name as Mary Elvira. Her nickname was Vera.

------------

"Her given name was Mary Elvira "Vera" Bailey. She went by "Vera". She was my GG Grandmother. Several veteran benefits documents has her as Mary Elvira both inside the document and where she signed. Also my mom understood her name to be Mary Elvira as told by her mom. No grave has ever been located for her or for George Ross, her husband."

The 1870 census spells her name Evira. 1880 has Elvira. George and Elvira were enumerated in the Truckwheel District of Pickens County, Georgia.

In the 1880 census George Ross and Elvira are in the same household with their son Sanford Giffin Mullins in Bosque County, Texas. They moved to Texas with Giffin and his family about 1875-6.

In 1900, Widowed Mary is living in the household of her grandson Lindsey Carr Mullins in Choctaw Nation, Indian Territory. She is listed here as Mary E, which would seem to indicate the name Mary Elvira, though other sources seem to indicate the name order was Elvira Mary, as in 1880. Lindsey is the son of Sanford Giffin Mullins.
