  • Notes 
    • Malisa spelling per headstone. Her name appears as Malissa on her marriage license with William Henry Dotson - spelling she herself provided. It is quite possible that Malissa is the birth spelling of her name and not Malisa as it is on her headstone.

      It appears William Henry Dotson was her first husband.
      It appears John C. Young was her second husband.
      It appears Jonathan J. Holloway was her third and final husband.
