deathMary Eastman died sometime between 1840 and 1850, because in 1850 Thomas Munsell is married to Mary Finell. (This can be told by the 1840 census - whereas Mary Finell would have been 40-50 years old, Mary Eastman would have been 30-40 years old.) |

O'Sullivan claims (in connection with the annexation of Texas) in The United States Magazine and Democratic Review that the United States should be allowed "the fullfillment of our manifest destiny to overspread the continent allotted by Providence for the free development of our yearly multiplying millions".
