This is what I know about her: She was born Apr 21, 1842 in Indiana to John and Mary Smith. She married Joseph Swarm (b ? - d abt 1865) on Jul 6, 1862 in Henry County, Ohio. They had two children, Jonathan (b 1863 - d 1864) and Joseph (b 1865 - d 1872). Mary then married Lloyd T. Patterson on April 21, 1867 in Henry County Ohio. They had six children: Viola May (b 1868 - d 1876), Anna Eleanor (b 1870 - d 1923), Jasper Orval (b 1871 - d 1945), Violet Jane (b 1874 - d 1957), Elmer Bertum (b 1878 - d 1955) and Nettie Belle (b 1880 - d 1907). Viola and Anna were born in Henry County, Ohio, Jasper and Violet in Steubens County, Indiana and Elmer and Nettie in Berrien County, Michigan. The family then moved to Phelps County Missouri where Mary died on May 18, 1906 and is buried in Macedonia Cemetery where, thankfully, her grave marker included her birth and death dates. If you have any information on Mary, her parents or siblings I would greatly appreciate hearing from you. Jacquie
