Narrative:

     Mary J. Quakenbush was born on 18 Sep 1857 in Indiana.8,9,10
     She appeared on the 1860 Federal Census of Highland Twp., Greene Co., Indiana, in the household of her parents, John Quakenbush and Permelia Jewel.16 She appeared on the 1870 Federal Census of Worthington, Greene Co., Indiana, in the household of her parents.17 She appeared on the 1880 Federal Census of Highland Twp., Greene Co., Indiana, in the household of her parents.18
     Mary married William David Riegel, son of Jacob K. Riegel and Christiana Ohl, on 20 Sep 1888 in Phillips Co., Kansas.11,12,13
     Mary and William appeared on the 1895 State Census of Glenwood Twp., Phillips Co., Kansas, at Crow, reporting that he had moved to Kansas from Missouri, and she from Indiana. Their children Ida, John, Alice and Frank were listed as living with them.19
     Mary and William appeared on the 1900 Federal Census of Sumner Twp., Phillips Co., Kansas, enumerated 28 Jun 1900, reporting that the family owned its farm on government land. Their children Ida, John, Alice, Frank, Yletta, James and Iva were listed as living with them, as was Leonard W. Cottrill, a 23-year-old farm laborer.20
     Mary and William moved with their children, apparently excluding John, to Missouri by before Mar 1906.21
     Mary and William appeared on the 1910 Federal Census of Hazelwood Twp., Webster Co., Missouri, enumerated 3 May 1910, reporting that the family owned its farm, which was mortgaged. Their children Ida, Alice, Yletta, James and Iva were listed as living with them.22
     Not surprisingly, there is evidence that her husband's incarceration created hardship on Mary's family. Her youngest son, James, who was 13 at the time, returned to Kansas, where his older brother had stayed, and he was working on a farm there by 1918. His twin sister, Iva, received her mother's permission to marry at age 15, in 1913. And apparently her eldest daughter's husband had taken over the family farm, and Mary was living with then by 1920. Mary appeared on the 1920 Federal Census of Hazelwood Twp., Webster Co., Missouri, in the household of William Meek Hoggatt, her son-in-law, and his two children, apparently on the farm her husband had owned.23
     Mary died on 3 Nov 1925 in Finley Twp., Webster Co., Missouri, at age 68.14 She was buried on 3 Nov 1925 in Mountain Dale Cemetery, Webster Co., Missouri.15
