| Birth | Mary Wilcox was born in 1839 at County of York. |
| Marriage | She married Alexander Buchanan, son of William Buchanan and Jane Maria Griffith, on 18 March 1857. A family chart dates the marriage of Alexander Buchanan and Mary Wilcox to March 18, 1857. Marriage records for this era are difficult to find. The chart states that they were married by Rev. Dr. Smith, Baptist Minister of St. George. The place of marriage is not given. Beyond this, we have the following from the Christian Messenger: Edition of March 26, 1857 Buchanan-Wilcox-On 18 March by Rev. William Smith, Alexander Buchanan of North Dumfries, Waterloo Co., to Mary Wilcox, South Dumfries, Brant Co. Refer Christian Messenger, Births - Deaths - Marriages, Volume 1, November 1854 - July 1857, Hamilton Branch, Ontario Genealogical Society, 2001. The transcription of these records begins with the statement that the Christian Messenger was published at Brantford. |

| Note | A death registration for Mary has not been found. We take her date of death from the Waterloo Region OGS transcription of her gravestone. Information found on her children's records places her birth in the County of York. |
