Mary married Josephine's widower, Anton Barton, in 1894. Anton adopted Ernest and Leo in 1898. He was a blacksmith. Anton died in 1925 and is buried in Neillsville, WI. Mary moved out to the coast and bought a little house in Arletta, WA. There was a huge field of Loganberries at the place. She visited often. Her last illness was at our home. She was bedridden for about 6 months and being a very proud woman, she wouldn't let any of the boys or dad in her room to see her...just Virginia or her mother. She was my mom's favorite person!! She is buried in the spanaway Cemetery. Memories by Virginia Barton Wainhouse
