Her parents were William Quitman Rutland and Imogene Gandy Rutland. I don't have her spouse or children, but her siblings were: Quitman; Dewey; Hoy and Troy (twins); Burl; Dewitt; and Fannie. William Quitman Rutland was the son of William R. and Mary Elizabeth Chain Rutland. If you think this is your Mertie Mary, contact me by email. Loretta
