Mary was a daughter of Jacob Kercher (1846-1915) and Mary Foerch (1852-1937). She married Solomon Sittler on August 2, 1900, in Saint Jacobs, Ontario.

Mary and Solomon Sittler were the parents of:
- Jacob Arthur (1900-1993)
- Catherine Velina (1902-1975)
- John Henry (1904-1987)
- Mary Ann (1906-1958)
- Mark Simon (1908-1909)
- Andrew George (1910-1963)

A death record indicates that Mary suffered from acute nephritis (kidney disease) during her last days. Premature labour caused her death on April 6, 1913, 22 days after her 36th birthday.

Solomon Sittler died in May 1914, a little more than a year after Mary's death. Their five orphaned children were all under the age of 14 years.
