I know we shouldnt make assumptions without fact, but I suspect that Mary left John and emigrated.  Her marriage to Henry - if it took place - might have been bigamy!

According to the newspaper article it was Norman Barr and Kathleen who were disputing the estae.

N Barr aged 10 appears on that 1881 census.

Norman Barr is in Arizona. Imm 1894 - same year as it states for Mary's marriage  ???

Remember it was 1885 that Henry and Mary arrived in Tombstone as 'newlyweds'.  I assumne young Kathleen and Norman were with them, so I guess she left John Barr.  There is no sign that he died that year.
