In 1861 she came with her parents to Linn county in a covered wagon driven by oxen, and located on a farm north of Marion which her father purchased from the government. She went to what is now known as Hillsdale school, later attended by all her children and six of her grandchildren.

Four children were born to them, three sons, Fred, Henry and George, and one daughter, Katherine Langhoff. Besides her children, she is survived by twelve grandchildren and three great-grandchildren. Two sisters, Mrs. Louise Munier of Marion and Mrs. Catherine Lovey of France, preceded her in death. During her youth, she affiliated with the Presbyterian church.
