Married Name20 Dec 1821  As of 20 Dec 1821, her married name was Stallworth.1 
Marriage*20 Dec 1821 She married James Callaway Stallworth at South Carolina on 20 Dec 1821. Shirley Bray wrote on 2 Nov 2004: "I've received copies of the estate records of Catherine (Travis) Pope from Edgefield Co., SC. On the first ledger page (see:
http://gen.culpepper.com/archives/sc/images/CatherineTravisPopeEstate.jpg), the first entry speaks of James Stalsworth... in right of his wife. Maria Elizabeth Pope-Stallsworth is not mentioned by name here or in any of the estate documents. And, isn't this interesting that this entry is dated February 14, 1820 when the marriage record for Maria and James is dated December 20, 1821. But, the marriage record and also Virginia Genealogies & Biographies has documented James C. Stallsworth as the husband of Maria Elizabeth Pope so finding James Stalsworth as the son-in-law of Catherine Pope adds more proof to this marriage.".1,2 
Death*20 Jul 1870 She died on 20 Jul 1870.1
