Mary married a John Jones and had several children. She later separated from John Jones but retained her property and custody of the two children. Mary's daughter, Hannah Ann, married a John Wesley Disney and had three children. Elizabeth Hargest married a John Ogier in Baltimore and had two sons before her death in 1832; James Hargest Ogier (1830-1885) and John Stewart Ogier (1832-1926).
