She was married about 1865 to Ezekiel T Corley. As far as I can tell, they had 8 children, Saryan Nettie (Busbee), Adkin, Arthur F., Bunion, Charles Gaston ,Benjamin, Buell, and Georgia Palm (Temples). Her dad was Joel E. McGraw and her mother was Elizabeth Mathews(or Mathis) McGraw. Ezekiel died in 1885 and she lived with her younger daughter and her husband, Jacob and Georgia "Palm" Temples according to later census records. I have located some of the children and will ask FAG to add them as links. Any information is appreciated.
"She was born in Old Edgefield District in South Carolina. When the Old Edgefield District was broken into counties, where she lived changed to Saluda County. She lived to be 87 years old and was very active even at her advanced age. She visited her son and her grandchildren on a regular basis. They (my uncles) remembered her very well. She was described as always being a strong woman and standing her ground. After Ezekiel T. Corley (her husband) died, she never remarried. She ran her farm by herself and had her dog with her everywhere. My aunt described her as a "firecracker"." from Melinda Mashburn
