united in marriage with Thomas J. Wilson. to them were born one some and three 
daughters. The son died in California in 1902. Two daughters reside in 
Nebraska and the other, Mrs. Joseph White, lives near Payette.

In 1866 she became a follower of the Christ and was baptized by Rev. D. R. 
Dungan, one of the pioneers of the Christian church. She remained steadfast in 
her faith and trust till the end. She was a kind and loving mother and devoted 
to her children, and prior to her illness was an active worker in the church.
