- “On March 19, 1874 in Livingston County she remarried to Joseph Stauffer. He was born at Willmandingen,Baden June 18, 1852, and died in Ontario Dec. 10, 1918, a son of Joseph Stauffer and Barbara Roth. In 1880 he remarried to Matti Bender in Henry County, Iowa. Gospel Herald, May 1878: "Feb. 26th, in Seward Co., Neb., in childbed, Sister Mary, wife of Joseph Stauffer, aged 28 years and 25 days. She leaves a bereaved husband and three children to mourn their loss. Her child she took with her. She was a faithful sister in the Amish church. She bore her brief sickness with great patience. A very touching sermon was delivered on the funeral occasion by Joseph Gascho and P. P. Hershberger, from Lamentations 3: and Matt. 24:42-44. This family with his parents came to this place from Livingston Co., Ill., and in less than a month the sister was called to her eternal home." [2]
