Mary (went by Martha, or usually Polly) Lewis was the fourth of seven known children of Benjamin Lewis (1825-1864) who was born in Tennessee and died at Silvey, Wayne County, Missouri. Benjamin married Naomi Huet (Hewitt/Hewit) (1827-1863) who died at Vulcan, Iron County, Missouri. It is not known for sure where Naomi is buried. She may have been buried on their family farm and not in an established cemetery.
Note that Polly's grave marker reads born 1855, while most census and family records indicate 1857. I will use the 1855 to jibe with the grave marker date.
Polly married 1st to Franklin (Frank) J. Stevenson (b. 1855 in Iron County, Missouri; the son of Henderson C. Stevenson (1818-???) and Angeline McFadden Stevenson (1820-???). It is not known when or where Henderson or Angeline died. Frank died between 1883 (when his third child was born and 1886). Polly and Frank were the parents of three children, two girls and one boy, namely:
1. Martha Evalyn Stevenson Seal (1878-1974)
2. Hartford Stevenson (1880-1966)
3. Frankie May Stevenson Miller (1883-1983)
After Frank died, Polly remarried to James Ruble (1847-1895) on 26 Sep 1886 at Iron County, Missouri. Polly and James were the parents of four children, two girls and two boys, namely:
4. Maude Ruble Pippin (1887-1969)
5. James Jack Ruble (1890-1956)
6. Daisy Jane Ruble Morgan (1891-1955)
