Obituary
Mary Rogers was born Oct. 17, 1816, at Harpers Ferry, Virginia. She removed with her parents to Jennings county, Ind., in the year 1819, when about three years of age and settled near Teacreek. Her father returned to Virginia to settle up his business, being a gunsmith by trade. He made guns for the Revolutionary war. He died not long after he returned to Virginia. She married Elias L. Deputy in the year 1835. To this union were born nine children, four daughters and five sons, four of whom, two girls and two boys, and husband preceded her to the Glory World. She united with the Mt. Zion M. E. church under the ministry of Rev. William Maupin in early life and lived a consistent Christian life until the Master called her, for she often said, "the good Lord would soon relieve her of her suffering and that she was ready and willing to go." She met with a serious accident five years ago the 3rd of February, by falling, from which she was never able to walk or be out of the house. Kind hearts and willing hands administered to her every want. She had an unfaltering trust in God and when the summons came it found her ready. She departed this life Mar. 4, 1906 at 6:30 a. m., aged 89 years, 4 months and 17 days. She leaves one brother, Jas. M. Rogers, one half-brother, five children, eleven grandchildren, seventeen great-grandchildren and a host of relatives and friends to mourn their loss.
