Mary Elizabeth Hargrave was born in Sioux township on August 19, 1871, and grew to womanhood there. She was united in marriage in her early girlhood to Truman H. Scott of Dickens and became the mother of nine children, who with the husband, survive her. The children are: Everett, Mrs. Maude Thompson, Ray, Carl, Mrs. Iola Hanna, Lyla, Alice and Charlotte, all of whom live in or near Dickens.
