Mary's middle initial has changed here from A to E. This census reports her birthday as March of 1880. Yet in the 1880 census, she is reported as 1 year old. I will leave her birth as indicated by the 1880 census, about 1879.

Marital Status Single, Occupation Dress Maker
Father H A [A J] Gregory born Tennessee
[This same name was reported on her sister Martha Jane's death certificate, by the same informant, their sister Harriet Rachel Gregory Beck. But their father was Andrew Jackson Gregory. I suggest that when Harriet said "H A" the coroner heard it as "A J," only a slight difference in the middle.]
Mother Letha Teer [Few] born Tennessee
[Their mother's maiden name is wrong also. The certificate is typewritten. This entry could have been misentered due to misreading a handwritten original. The name Few is correct on Martha Jane's death certificate.]

Cause of Death Cancer of the Rectum for 1 year
Burial 31 Mar 1946 Taft Cemetery, Dandridge, Jefferson Co TN by Holder Funeral Home, Newport, Cocke Co TN
