Monroe Co. Wills Book A, pg 64

To son Vanburen land where Edwin White lives. Exec. Holloway Giles. Wits: Arch McCray and Hugh P. Holland. Executed 8/1/1846.
There is apparently a headstone for a Mary C. Burleson, said to be Mary Coleman wife of this Isaac. The stone has wife of Isaac Sr. with these dates - b. 5 May 1779, d. 9 Jun 1865 - and a note claiming that this is the wife of this Isaac and the dates should have been about 1810 - 1890 - obviously two very different ladies are confused. Perhaps two generations of Isaacs married ladies name Mary.
