Mary Mahala Jane (Mahala) Bray
Female, born 10 Sep 1871, died 31 May 1950
Partner: William George Washington (Will) Green (born about 1868, died 10 August 1944)
Partner: John William Williamson (born 2 April 1877, died 26 May 1927)
| Name Sources | Mary Mahala Jane (Mahala) Bray.1,2,3,4,5,6 |
| Photographs |  |
| Birth | There are different records with different birth dates. There is one family record with a birth date of 1872 and another family record with a birth date 1876. Either date is possible. The former seems more likely because it's the most consistent with the 1880 census and her first son was born in 1898. Her death certificate lists a birth date of 1870. The most credible family record is the family bible and it gives a birth date of 1871. The 1 has a dot after it which makes it look like a little bit like a 6. It seems likely that the 1876 date was copied from the record which says 1871, and somebody misinterpreted the 1 as a 6.2,3,4,6 |
| Parents | Joseph A. (Joe) Bray and Ferriba Salina (Salina) Moore.3,7 |
| Names | Full name: Mary Mahala Jane Bray. She was known as Mahala or Haley. Her grandchildren called her Nother Mama. Her nieces and nephews called her Aunt Haley. There is not a single source that lists all three of her given names and her nickname. So her complete name and her nickname has been pieced together from multiple sources: Mahala Bray - 1880 census Mary M. J. Bray - marriage to W. G. W. Green Mary Mahala Green - divorce from William Green Jane Bray - marriage to J. W. Williamson Mahala Jane Williamson - Williamson family bible Mahala Williamson - 1900 census, 1920 census Mary J. Williamson - 1910 census Mary Williamson - 1930 census Mahala Bray Williamson - 1940 census, death certificate in 1950 Haley Williamson and Aunt Haley - reported by her granddaughter Ruth Peters Bryan Nother Mama - reported by several of her grandchildren. Her granddaughter Ruth Peters began calling her 'nother Mama (another Mama), and the rest of the grandchildren followed suit.1,4,3,6,2,5 |

Research log by Jerry Bryan re: 1910
census for William George Washington
Green.
Log filed 08/12/2024
Extensive searching of census records
has not turned up any record for
William George Washington Green.
In 1910, he was not married and his
only child was in the custody of his
ex-wife. He does not appear in
the household of his parents or of
any of his siblings.
I have searched by the name William and
variations, by the name George and variations,
by initials, and by variations on the
name Green. The one thing
I haven't done yet is to search tax records
to determine which county he might
have been living in. But it has hard to
know which county to search and tax
records in the early 1900's are hard
to find.
