She was residing with her parents and remaining siblings. In 1900, at age 50, Mary was residing in Peru, Miami, Indiana, USA with her sister Margaret and daughter, Mary Frances Sweetman. Her occupation is not listed. In 1910, at age 56, Mary was residing in Peru, Miami, Indiana, USA with her sister Margaret and duaghter, Mary Frances Sweetman.
