...Mary C. Leighty was born on February 2, 1860, at Attica, Indiana, and departed this life on July 25, 1940 at her home in Silver City, Iowa.
...there was little opportunity for a young girl to advance in education, and on Feb 22, 1877, at the age of 17, she became the bride of Mr. Samuel N. Mills. To this union were born 11 children (6 sons and 5 daughters).
