Mary Jane's biological father was Edward P. Hinman who married Mary Jane's mother Jane Damon in 1863. Prior to the 1880 census her parents divorced and her mother resumed her maiden name of Damon [legally or otherwise - I can't locate documentation to confirm which it was] and Mary Jane and her brother Frederick and sister Eva took their mother's maiden name [legally or otherwise] However on Eva's death record she is listed as Eva H. Hinman Morse so this may not have been a legal name change.
