Although the obituary states that Mary Ann was born at Oakland Illinois, their family records indicates that she was born at Cheviot Ohio. Both give the same date of birth (25 Sept 1867). She married Lewis Mason Buirley on 14 Oct 1884 at Portland Indiana, and then moved to Illinois. She died on 5 Nov 1940 in Miami County Ohio. -Mamie (Buirley) Shipp
