Notes
- Mary Frances was the second wife of Edward Harman, whom she married in 1868, about 10 years after the death of his first wife Nancy Graves. In 1870 they aer enumerated in Milam County, texas, with their new son John T and Edward's son from his first marriage to Nancy Graves, Benjamin. Edward Haynes also fits the pattern of another son of Nancy Graves and Edward Harman, though the surname given is Haynes, but I have not yet been able to account for him.

Harman, Edward 45 M W Farming $500 Real estate $500 personal b Tennessee
Harman, Mary 32 F W Keeping House b Alabama
Harman, Benjamin 15 M W b Texas
Haynes (?), Edward 13 M W b Texas
Haynes (?Harman), John 1 M W b Texas
The assignment of the name Haynes from the Edward Haynes listed above John appears to be an enumerator error. This John clearly matches John T Harman, son of Edward Harman and his second wife Mary Frances Thomason. Edward Harman/Harman has not yet (November 2008) been accounted for.
In 1880, they are enumerated in Milam County, Texas, with their three children John Tyson, Mary Jane and Ione B.
