The rare photo of Margaret (McReynolds) Farley, at right, is shared by Mary Margaret Livesay Trimble.

A record at First Methodist Church, Marengo, Iowa, documents Margaret's death on August 23, 1894, but the date on her gravestone is August 24. Likewise, there are discrepancies about her year of birth, which varies from 1826 to 1832! "Engraved in stone" is 1831.

Margaret was the paternal grandmother of Cal Farley, 1895-1967, founder of Cal Farley's Boys Ranch, Amarillo, Texas.

(Photos of the cemetery entrance and gravestone of Margaret McReynolds Farley were taken by DeeAnna Allum Granston in 1964 and 1965)
