Research Notes

  • Parents = ???. She was raised by John Pinkney Mayberry and Louisa Hayes, who are listed as her "grandparents" in the 1900 and 1910 census records.
  • In the 1940 census, she is widowed and has moved back to Eagle Mills and is living next to Z. Lee Mayberry, s/o John Pinkney Mayberry. Is this her father?
  • The 1942 WWII draft card of her son Kenneth lists a "Mrs. J.S. Hinson" as next of kin. This might be a third husband. There are 2 J.S. Hinson's listed in the 1943 Hill's Charlotte (Mecklenburg County, N C) City Directory, p 172 at that time:
    • HINSON J S & SONS (U Spencer Hinson), Deep Well Contrs. Drillers of Oil, Gas and Artesian Water Wells for Town Water Works and Mfrs, 816 Independence Bldg. 102 W Trade, Tel 2-2080
