Daughter of Joseph Rollins and Mary Wixon. She was a granddaughter of Revolutionary War Patriot John Rollins.
She married 1) Thomas J. Bragg on 28 Jan 1855 in Augusta, Kennebec County, Maine. They had children:
. Harriet Ann Bragg (1856 – 1916)
+ sp: Herbert Lester Heald (divorced)
+ sp: William S. Bragg
. Clara "Carrie" Alice Bragg (1858 - 1926)
+ sp: Frederick Augustus Jones
. Ernest Lynwood Bragg (1860 - 1931)
+ sp: Mary Esther Emery (divorced)
+ sp: Anna Jane West
. Charles Thomas Bragg (1863 - 1924)
+ sp: Lizzie Alexander (divorced)
+ sp: Mary Ella Lathrop
. Mary J. Bragg (1864 - 1865)
Her husband was killed in the Civil War. After his death, she married 2) Thomas Adams on 4 Jun 1867 in Augusta, Maine. They had children:
. Jennie I. Adams (1868 - 1950)
+ sp: Charles H. Jones, Jr.
. William Thomas Adams (1872 - 1953)
+ sp: Ida M. Cummings
In 1870 she lived in Vassalboro, Maine with her husband Adams, her 4 living children from first marriage, and a baby daughter, incorrectly listed on the census as "James", age 1.
In 1880 she lived in Augusta, Maine with husband, their 2 children, and her youngest son from previous marriage.
In 1900 she and her husband lived apart. She was counted with the family of her son Charles Bragg in Augusta, while her husband lived with their son William and family in Wilton, Maine. This 1900 census entry for her, however, is garbled, calling her "Mary J. Ames", widowed, with an incorrect birth date.
