Ron,
You have verbal proof that Callie was still alive in 1891 as that is when your Robert told the story that he was abt 6 or so when she died and after the birth of Ed. So, I would say that is Callie on the 1880 census. Did I see someplace that her name was Caldonia Dora? Or am I confusing that with someone else, I don't remember now.
To obtain Mary McCain's death certificate(or anyone elses that is listed in the death index) you need to send to the state.Go to www.healthy.arkansas.gov and then to the alphabet at the top of the pg for Vital Records. When you get to the vital records, it instructs you how to order the death certificates, etc.When you order one, make sure you spell the name exactly as the index has it spelled, even if it is wrong. Then put in the roll no., vol, pg, whatever they have supplied in the details of the index transcription.
1870 for Wilcox AL has John & Alice Majors with Mary age 19, several more children and Lewis Lee being the baby at 6mos. 1880 they are in Marengo Co with his name spelled Louis.Mary(Mary S on the census) is still in there with her father and they are living with a sister and brother in law. Since the middle initial for Mary is S and the middle initial for Lewis is L from later census records, I would say that this Mary and Lewis are the same as the ones in your family. And, it does look as if she never married.
I found (who I believe to be) Arabella Whitley's burial place, it is in Piney Grove. She is listed as A B Whitley Apr 13 1856-Mar 13 1920 "Mother". She is not in the death index.
I have searched 1860 for Sarah b ca 1828 TN, Robert 1853 & Callie 1859 all for last name Whitley and it's different variation with no luck. I have searched 1870 for George Murphy/Murphey 1866 for AR as well as the names above with both surnames.No luck.Sure is frustrating, tho.
