From 1870 census records, it appears that Elizabeth Chitwood Baxter and Mary J. Baxter are not the same person:

---1860 Census DeKalb Co, AL, Northern Div, p. 60 line 2 (376-376):
George W. Baxter 30 M Farmhand 100 b 1830 AL, Elizabeth Baxter 25 F b 1835 GA, James J. Baxter 8 M b 1852 AL, Mary C. Baxter 7 F b 1853 AL, Josephine Baxter 5 F b 1855 AL, Martha J. Baxter 4 F b 1856 AL, John R. Baxter 1 M b 1859 AL.

---1870 Census DeKalb Co, AL, T 7 R 8, p. 850 line 12 (64-64): G. W. Baxter 38 M Farmer b 1832 AL, ELIZABETH Baxter 33 F b 1837 GA, Jas. J. Baxter 18 b 1852 AL, Mary C. Baxter 16 F b 1854 AL, Josephine Baxter 14 F b 1856 AL, Martha J. Baxter 13 F b 1857 AL, John K. Baxter 11 M b 1859 AL, Charlotte Baxter 9 F b 1861 AL, Texas Baxter 5 F b 1865 AL, Brown Baxter 3 M b 1867 AL, Majr M. Baxter 2/12 M b 1870 AL.
---1870 Census Dale Co, AL, T 6 R 7, p. 825a line 8 (2-3): John Jarvis 35 M Invalid b 1825 TN, MARY J. Jarvis 27 F b 1833 NC, John Jarvis 1 M b 1869 AL.

---1880 Census DeKalb Co, AL, T 6 R 9, ED 54-8-1 (65-74):
George Baxter 47 Farmer b 1833 GA(? - ?), MARY Baxter 45 wife b 1835 GA(? - ?), Peter Baxter 9 son b 1871 NC(NC-NC), Minna Baxter 8 dau b 1872 AL(GA-NC), George Baxter 5 son b 1875 AL( GA-NC), Rebecca Baxter 4 dau b 1876 AL(? - ?), John Jarvice 11 stepson b 1869 11 AL(? - ?).

There is still some confusion regarding birthplaces in census records. Was George married to a second Mary in 1871?

George W. b 1830 AL - in 1860 census
G. W. b 1832 AL - in 1870 census
George b 1835 GA? - in 1880 census

Mary b 1833 NC in 1870 census (son John Jarvis b 1869 AL)
Mary b 1835 GA? in 1880 census(son Peter b 1871 NC(NC-NC))

Elizabeth b 1835 GA - in 1860 census
Elizabeth b 1837 GA - in 1870 census
