Mary married Charles Maybee [36992] [MRIN: 551605337], son of Joseph Maybee [37027] and Sarah House [37025], on 26 Jun 1866 in Saint Joseph, Buchanan County, Missouri, USA.⁹⁴⁵⁵ (Charles Maybee [36992] was born on 8 Apr 1828 in Parish, Oswego County, New York ⁷³⁸ and died on 2 Nov 1895 ⁹⁴⁵⁵.)

  Noted events in their marriage were:

• Anecdote. ⁹⁴⁷³ In hope of visiting his cousins, the Rulisons before returning
to Parish , Charles was on a raft trip, which was difficult.
When he reached St. Joseph, MO, he was very ill and had to
enter the St. Joe's hospital operated by Dr. Thomas Mount.
There he had a nurse, Mary Jane Mount (daughter of the doctor)
and the two young people fell in love. We do not know how long
Charles was in the hospital, but on June 26, 1866 they were
married at St. Joes against the violent objection of the Mount
family. She was disowned by the family for marrying a Damn
Yankee and she never saw them again. On the Kansas side of the
river was an almost continuous line of Indian tribes. the
couple eventually reached Wyandot, Kansas, home of the Wyandot
Indians, a village that was later to become Kansas City,
Kansas. There their first child, Clara Alma was born March 16,
1868.
The family then traveled southwesterly to central Kansas where
they hoped to farm and to obtain work as a builder. They found
a place called Agnes City near Emporia and four more children
were born: Charles E., George, Jan, Alice Fern and Janet Dove.
One interesting episode on their travels was when the notorious
female bandit Calamity Jane rode into camp one evening and
wanted to spend the night. She was placed under heavy guard
and the next morning a band of horsemen took her back along the
trail for 50 miles and sent her along her way with a dire
warning to keep going.
