How about Samuel Millard?Although Mary's obituary names her first husband as George Millard, in the registry of Boston marriages I find on 30 October 1853 Samuel Millard of New York City marrying Mary Elizabeth Fleming of Boston.He is a 26 year old mariner.She was 17.His father was Thomas, hers John.
Interestingly, five days earlier, Ellen Fleming, 18, of Boston, had married a mariner named Henry A Briard.With her second husband, Larned Swallow Bearce, Mary Elizabeth Fleming had one daughter named Florence Ellen and one named Eva Briard.
