Individual Details
Mary Frances Johns
(19 Feb 1885 - 25 Feb 1976)
Leona Hays Connally Briles says that Daniel Eli III's wife was named Nancy Moll. Perhaps he had two wives, or perhaps Leona was mistaken (but she seldom was).
According to the Social Security Death Records, Mary's Social Security Card No. was 467-54-7261 and that is was issued in Texas.
A visit to the Italy Cemetery, Italy, Ellis Co., TX, on April 26, 2007, confirmed the birth and death dates for Mary Frances John Briles provided above. See the "Notes" for DANIEL ELI BRILES III for the transcription of her and Daniel's headstone.
During our visit to Italy, Texas, with Tippi Xan Johnston Wardlaw Pyle on April 26, 2007, we saw and photographed the house at 133 Harpold Street where Mary had once run a well-known boarding house. (At least, we assume that it was this Mary Briles.)
