Notes
- The sparse information on her parents seems to indicate her maiden name was Elliot and thus McDaniel perhaps a first married name. But I have not found information about a first marriage. Genealogies I have found that include Lavinia do not report another marriage.

The Sanders Family Tree (http://trees.ancestry.com/tree/14731177/person/230975263?ftm=1) has her name simply as Lavinia Elliott, leaving the idea that her maiden name was Elliott, but the tree lacks any information on her parents. Most trees have this as her middle name.
