At the age of 15 Mary Louise moved from Ohio with her parents to a homestead in Stafford County, Kansas.
On August 4, 1904, George and Mary Louise moved from Kansas in a covered wagon with their daughters Lela and Dorothy to a farm near Freedom, Woods County, Oklahoma.
George had been to Freedom in the fall and winter of 1903 and 1904 and had built a large sod house 20' by 40', which had large glass windows.
He and his family later built a four-room gypsum house by firing the gypsum in a kiln. The walls were a foot thick.
In 1927 George and his sons Willard John and Wilford Chris built the family a modern six-room house on the homestead which was located one mile north and two and a half mile east of Freedom.
Mary Louise was well known in the area for her helping hand in the time of illness, her interest in the community affairs such as literaries, bazaars, 4th of July celebrations, and Memorial Day services.
She was active in her church and was a very devoted mother and neighbor. Her artistic abilities in sewing and other crafts were also known.
Mary Louise also took pride in preparing and serving the best of her food to the crews of neighbor men who helped each other harvest their crops.
