Mary Eliza Hancey Metcalf
She was born 1 February 1862 the oldest daughter and 4th child of James Hancey and Rachel Seamons Hancey. Eliza and her parents along with most of her siblings are listed in the 1870 Federal Census for Hyde Park, Cache, Utah.
Her future husband William David Metcalf is also listed in the 1870 Federal Census for Hyde Park, as a neighbor of the Hancey's, along with his parents and siblings, when he was 10 years old.
Her father was a polygamist and with that came responsibilities for Eliza. She had a total of 30 brothers and sisters (16 boys and 14 girls). She assisted her mother and her fathers 2nd and 3rd wife with her younger siblings.
She met her handsome husband William, after a logging accident in Logan Canyon, in which he severed every toe on his foot except the big toe. he was taken by his companions to Hyde Park, to the home of James Hancey, where Dr. Hancey tended to his injuries, and as William David was waking up some time afterwards, he looked right into the beautiful brown eyes of Mary Eliza Hancey, the Doctor's 17 year old daughter. Mary Eliza was assisting her father on that day.
She and William David Metcalf were married 8 July 1880 in Salt Lake City, Salt Lake, Utah at the Endowment House, and later lived in Malad, Idaho for a short time before moving to Iona - Ucon, Idaho area.
She was known as Eliza to her family, and when it came time for her granddaughter Verna Mary Metcalf Moyer Knowlton to be born, Eliza, is the one who was with her daughter in law Alice Lucinda Freeman Metcalf Wells, to assist in the delivery, since the doctor was not close by, Verna's middle name was given in honor of Verna's grandmother Mary Eliza Hancey Metcalf.
Eliza's grandkids Marvin Earl and Verna Mary had just got out of the hospital after a sickness, and SADLY less than a week later their grandmother passed away. They were heart broken because they were so close to their beloved grandmother.
Mary Eliza passed away after a stroke, and her funeral was handled by MCHAN MORTUARY of Idaho Falls, Idaho.
(The business was owned and operated by Virgil Floyd McHan : Find A Grave # 75883165).
Prior to her passing she sold the land that she and her husband William had bought in Hell Creek, located in Bone, to a family named Haroldsen.
