************************************
It is clear from all the information that I am reading that there is some question as to the name of Mary Frances Robertson Jefferson. I have been reading that her name was really Frances and that after she died in 1750 that Feild remarried to a Mary. I see where they named a child Frances and not Mary. One article stated that someone had just decided to add Mary to the Frances name. Hopefully, this can be cleared up, but after all this time I do not know.
