Mary Catherine Wierman was born in Adams County, Pennsylvania, November 26, 1845 to Jacob and Maira Orndorff Wierman. In early womanhood she moved with her parents to Burlington, Iowa. She was wnited in marriage with Isaac Ezra Wolf of Burington, Iowa, on August 1, 1865, who also had come from Pennsylvania to Iowa. In 1878 they with their family moved to Clay County, Kansas, locating on a farm near Longford, where they together bore the trials and difficulties and hardships of the early days in Kansas, sharing the joys and sorrows of those about them, ever ready to lend a helping hand to those in need. Here they labored, rendering a service to mankind by helping to improve the country, planting orchards, which provided fruit for many, far and near, building up a beautiful country home to which a glad welecome for neighbors and friends and the weary wayfarer was extended.
To them were born six sons and three daughters, all of whom grew to manhood and womanhood here. The two eldest, Mrs. John (Sabina) Garvie of Quinlan, Oklahoma and Jacob F. Wolf of Longford, Kansas, have been called to their reward, the one departing this life Febrary 17, 1913, and the other October 6, 1915. Some of the sons having gone to Oklahoma to make their homes, in 1910, Mr. and Mrs. Wolf sold the home farm and they too moved to Oklahoma, where they built up a new home.
Later Mr. Wolf's health began to fail and they came to Lonford to the home of their son, Jacob F. wolf, for a visit, thinking the change might benefit him, but, where, after a long illness, he died December 21, 1913.
Mrs. Wolf then went back to Oklahoma, wher she lived until the time of her death, which occurred, after a short illness, at the home of her son Fred, of Waynoka, at 5 o'clock a.m., Friday, January 3, 1919.
Thus a good mother has gone home. Mrs. Wolf was of a cheerful sunny disposition, bringing sunshine with her wherever she moved. It was her great pleasure, especially in the later years of her life, to care for the sick and suffering, and it was while upon this mission that God called her home.
She leaves to miss her loving presence, five sons and two daughters: John W. Wolf and Grand Pere Nodd Wolf, both of Quinlan, Oklahoma, Clarence G. Wolf of Hugo, Colorado, Isaac G. Wolf of Quinlan, Oklahoma, Fred J. Wolf of Waynoka, Oklahoma, Mrs. George (Sadie) Baker of Minneapolis, Kansas, and Mrs. Dana F. (Anna) Allgire of Longford, Kansas; also three sisters, Mrs. Joanna Burrus of Burlington, Iowa, Mrs. Joshua (Frances) Decker of Corning, Iowa, and Mrs. Harriet Tucker of Eastern Oklahoma; twenty-nine grandchildren and eight great-great grandchildren, besides other relatives and many friends.
A most blessed comfort this mother has left to her loved ones, that her trust was in Jesus. That she lived in loving service for Him and for those about her. That in the evening of her life, before God called her into His glorious presence in the mansions of light she was happy in Him, was evidenced by her much sining of of that wonderful hymn, "He Is So Precious To Me."
The body of Mrs. Wolf was shipped to Longford from Waynoka, Oklahoma. The funeral services were held by Rev. D. F. Honstedt, from the Lonford Evangelical Church, on Monday, January 6, and the body was laid to rest in the Keystone Cemetery by the side of her husband.
