Dutson Publisher FILLMORE Editor & Marge Barton - Compositor Photographer Reporter Ads Display Jean Smith - Compositor Photographer Reporter - by STELLA DAY This biography was written in December 1979, too late to be printed in Builders of Early Millard," by John Victor Rogers To Speak Voids , MARY ELIZABETH BARNEY ROGERS Mary Elizabeth Barney, daughter of James Henry and Emily Tolron Barney, was born July 28, 1867 in Beaver, Utah, the first child of a family of 13 children The other twelve, Lewis Edward, Margaret Ellen, Victor Henry, Lydia Ann, Clara Edith, Franklin Eugene, Francis Emmeline, Ester Adeline, Nellie May, Carrie, James Ray, and Archie Fay, were born in a two roomed log cabin in Kanosh, Utah. With such a large family, even the bare necessities were difficult to obtain. Being the oldest child, Mary Elizabeth often worked out helping neighbors, but receiving very little pay. She even worked for a Memmott family in Scipio when it took most a whole day to get to Scipio from Kanosh. Mary Elizabeth had a difficult time seeing, and her younger sister had a hearing problem, but they worked together and helped each other. Oftentimes when they were hungry, they would take long sharp sticks and go out in the hills and dig sego lily bulbs for food. She remembers when the family had no shoes; she and her brother would jump from one dry spot to another to avoid getting their feet wet in the snow Both father and mother attended the schools in Kanosh, but the schools were of poor quality and lasted but a few months each year while the weather was too inclement to do outside work. The children were taught practical knowledge since they were all needed to help earn a living One January 14, 1890, after a courtship of two years, Mary Elizabeth Barney and John Alexander Rogers were married in Fillmore by Bishop Thomas Callister. Their first child, Blanche Agnes, was born Oct. 14, 1890, named for her grandmother Rogers and her father's sister, Agnes Jane Rogers. The second child was born Dec 28, 1895 and named Ofie, after the name of a hero of a novel the mother read and admired The third child was named Henry after the grandfather Barney. He was born April 17, 1903. The fourth child, another son, was named John after his father and Victor after his mothers brother. Although the mother had very poor eyesight, she did all of her own housework, cooking, cleaning, washing, and caring for the children as well as the outside chores. The father was in Escalante raising and caring for a large herd of cattle. Before Victor, their last child, was born, Mary Elizabeth finally persuaded her husband to come back to Kanosh to make their living, so from then on Mary Elizabeth had an easier life. Mary Elizabeth was a very devoted mother, spiritual in nature, and very active in the Latter-da- y Saints Church. She not only encouraged her children to attend church, she went with them seeing that each of her three boys came up through the ranks of the priesthood Blanche Agnes married Wilbert Atwood, a barber from Spanish Fork, Dec. 30, 1914. The marriage was later solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple and they raised their family in Pingree, Idaho. Ofie served his country in World War I. The mother was very grateful to the Lord that Ofie did not have to serve overseas. He later served a two-yemission to the eastern states, which made his mother proud and happy He married Mary Bakes from Beaver and they both taught scnool. After Mary died he married Helen McBride Sundstrum of Fillmore. They lived in Fillmore where Helen was County Treasurer for many years. Ofie died May 9, 1974. Henry Lynn married Wilma Lucinda Merrill June 29, 1936, and they lived in Salt Lake City. They later moved to Rexburg, Idaho where their marriage was solemnized in the Idaho Falls Temple Victor married Lillian Stead, of English birth, March 27, 1937 in Los Angeles In October 1937 the marriage was solemnized in the Salt Lake Temple. Their home is now in Kanosh. As religious as Mary Elizabeth was, she was not able to get her husband to become active in the LDS Church She obtained a recommend and went to the temples with other saints. Her endowment date was May 19, 1926 As a result of her love, patience, faith, and prayers, and the fellowshipping of her husband by the Kanosh members of the church, he became an Elder and they were sealed in the Manti Temple June 29, 1942 Her health began to fail in 1940, due to a heart condition She died July 4, 1944 and was buried in the Kanosh Cemetery ar ti I I I i r i r 6 Advertising Rates on Request Second Class Postage paid at Fillmore, Utah 84631 POSTMASTER: Send Address Changes to P.O.
