The 1895 MN State Census record shows the following 4-member household residing in Ward 3, Stillwater, Washington County, MN:

Henry N Setzer M 69y Missouri
Sarah A Setzer F 60y Ohio
Rozella Stephens F 34y Ohio
Jennie Stage F 14y Indiana

WI Marriage Index record:
Groom's Name: Enoch B. Stevens
Groom's Birthplace: Redfield, Mich.
Bride's Name: Rosella Stage
Bride's Birthplace: Ada, Hancock Co., Wis.
Marriage Date: 15 Nov 1891
Marriage Place: St. Croix Falls, Polk, Wisconsin
Groom's Father's Name: William G. Stephens
Groom's Mother's Name: Harriet Stephens
Bride's Father's Name: H. N. Setzer
Bride's Mother's Name: Sarah Tremans

There are a number of inconsistencies between the two records shown above. One is Rozella's birth place, Ohio vs. Wisconsin. There is town of Ada in Sheboygan County, WI and Hardin County, OH but there is no Hancock County in Wisonsin (unless it is defunct). The Stevens/ Stephens surname is inconsistent. Jennie Stage could be either a sister or a daughter of Rozella. Sarah Tremans Setzer, the mother of the bride, is not found in this cemetery.

NOTE: The "Dela Stevens" stone is pictured on the far right in the second photograph.
