comments

Mary was born c1826 in Ohio. She married George Deming in 1851 and had at least three children, Origen Leon, Maria, and Mary Abigail (Labaj). She married William Scrivens in 1858 (Labaj), who already had children from a previous marriage. She is listed in the 1860 U.S. Census at the age of 34. The last name is misspelled as Scrivaens. Her husband, William, was born c1816 in England. His occupation is farmer with $2500 in real estate value and $500 personal property. The children Edwin (14), Mary (11), and Maria (6), were all born in Ohio and attended school within the year. Mary and William had another child, Cora Scrivens, in 1866. Mary died on 2 December 1867 at the age of 41 years and 7 months. See entries for Elihu and Accious Crane for more genealogy. Her tombstone was recorded in 1904. It stated, "Serivens [sic, Mary J., wife of Wm. Serivens [sic], d. Dec. 2, 1867, ae. 41 yrs. 7 mo." In 2007, the stone was located. It is a white marble tablet, with a hand pointing to heaven over the inscription. The inscription reads "MARY J. Wife of Wm Scrivens DIED Dec 2, 1867 Aged 41 ys 7 m." The tablet appears to have been broken off the base and reattached with a black tarry substance.
