Phoebe was her younger sister, born about 1829 and listed on the Missouri 1850 census. Mary's nickname was "Polly," which is how she is listed on the 1860 MO census with her father Oliver and step-mother Mary "Polly" Downey.

Some researchers suggest Mary Jane was Polly; that there was not another daughter born between she and Phebe. However, three items suggest otherwise - a) the number of years between Mary's and Phebe's births, b) the fact that Mary Jane never used the name Polly on any records, and c) the age of Polly on the 1860 Census. More research is needed.
