Possibly born as Mary Queen. She was shown as "Mary" in the 1870 & 1880 Censuses and in her wedding announcement; but shown as "May" in the 1900 & 1910 Censuses, and "Mae" in her own Bible, "The New Indexed Bible" (1913) Family History, the 1930 Atlanta, Fulton Co., GA Census, and on her gravestone.

Mae married Walter Tatnall Mooney on Thursday, 26 Jan 1886 in Atlanta, Fulton County, Georgia at the home of Rev. T. P. Cleveland. They had at least nine children:

- Walter Tatnall Mooney, Jr. (1886-1886)
- Reginald Berkley "Rex" Mooney (1887-1953)
- Edna Letitia (Mooney) Lee (1890-1963)
- (Infant son) Mooney (1892-)
- Mae Queen (Mooney) Cowley (1893-1919)
- Walter Sims Mooney (1896-1960)
- Francis Erwin "Frank" Mooney, Sr. (1898-1954)
- Charles Howard Mooney (1901-1963/4)
- Ruth Schaeffer (Mooney) Salley (1905-1989)

They resided in a huge, white ante-bellum home at 700 Gordon Street West (between East Ontario & West Ontario and across from Wellington Street), Atlanta Ward 7, Fulton County, Georgia that was later torn down to "put up a parking lot"! Mae had a parrot that would say everytime the doorbell rang, "Doorbell, Pearl." - the name of the maid. Gertrude Ruth Mooney, one of her granddaughters, was born on the second floor of that home on 25 Apr 1921.
