Dolly Andrews (maiden name: Burns) was born in Mississippi on January 1, 1864. She became Alexander Andrews's second wife sometime after 1910. After his death in 1916, she applied for a pension but received a rejection due to the fact that her marriage occurred after 1905. Dolly never remarried after Alexander's death, but she did adopt a son, Henry Milton, who lived with her in 1930. Dolly died on December 22, 1963, although the cause is unknown. She is buried with Alexander Andrews in Vicksburg National Cemetery.
