Or, is this her in 1930 census under Cora Maney, Mt. Vernon District 19. She's on the same page with Rosco Wells and Alva Wells and Mary Wells Smith. She's listed as age 52 and divorced. Age at first marriage is 46. Is this her? I did some looking around on Ancestry and the only Frank Jefferson Maney I could find in SC was born in 1894, almost 20 years younger. Hmm was she cradle robbing lol? Maybe that's why the marriage was never acknowledged.
