*Transcribed for genealogy purposes; I have no relation to the person(s) mentioned.

Note: Marinda’s maiden name was KESTER. In the WPA report for Jefferson County, her year of birth is noted as 1850; local genealogists indicate she was born in 1851. Her gravestone only indicates years of birth and death: 1851 – 1923, and gives her hame as Marinda Caroline KESTER; it makes no mention of HISEL. She and husband Louis are buried in Evergreen Cemetery, Fairfield, in Lot 2nd.170.
