In the 1910 Census, It shows Mary Brown as being a Widow.
Though according to our Death Certificate Hiram T. Brown
died in 1920 ten years later.
Is this a miss print?

Mary talked of growing up around Golden, NM and told stories of her uncle and others going out after a rain and panning
for gold. Sometimes finding nuggets in addition to the gold dust. Other stories were about living in Estancia Valley,
NM and going with the family whom she was living with to a small town named Willard to get salt from the Salt Lakes.
Another of her stories was how she enjoyed the evening at the ranch house when the "Cowboys" would come in from the range.
She told of having attended the "Rough Riders Reunion" in Las Vegas, NM, with her husband Hiram T. Brown about 1910, she divorced
Hiram Brown and in 1911 married Alford Monroe Ransom. In 1925, she and Alford pretty much assumed the responsibility
of raising the three sons of her youngest daughter May who had been widowed.
