      Mary Fitch, wife of Nathan Byce, became known as "Big Mary" not becau se of her actual size, but rather because her daughter, by a previous marriage, was also named Mary Fitch and her daughter (hence "Little Mary") married Nathan's youngest brother, Frank Byce. Plus Nathan & Frank's mother was named Mary Ann.
