Notes for Marianna Mayo:
A caution to other researchers that there are two marriage bonds in Virginia. One for Nathaniel Anderson and Mary Mayo and another for Nathan Anderson and Marianna Mayo, the bonds separated by a few years. Unfortunately this means that every company that transcribes these bonds combines the two bonds into one entry not recognizing that these are two different couples. Mary and Marianna are couisins not siblings.
Mariann was disinherited by her father for marrying into a Methodist family. Marianna Mayo's portrait in oil done by John Durand is in the hands of the Cate family of Nashville, Tennessee.
Richmond Whig & public advertiser - Died - On July 18, Mrs. Marinna Anderson, in her 84th year. (pg 4, col 3) Fri, July 20, 1849.

Patrick,I've learned a lot from your detailed Anderson family research.My connection to the Andersons may have never come to light if I had not inherited an oil portrait of Marianna.My great-grandparents were devout Methodists and my great-uncle a Methodist preacher,so stories of Marianna's conversion and consequent disinheritance were proudly passed down with the painting.She must have been dearly loved,because her portrait is hardly glamorous and yet remained in the family.This unsigned image may have been painted about the time she moved to Federal street in Richmond as she appears to be quite old.You mentioned that the Cate family in Tennessee also have a portrait which I imagine depicts Marianna in her younger days.Do you know how I might contact the Cates in order to compare paintings? Thanks,Ed Miller
