Her youngest daughter, Lillie, had a caller, a young man named Wisey Biggs. The two young people sat on the Crowell front porch and talked late into the night. The next morning Mrs. Crowell confronted her daughter over the evidence of the two chairs on the porch being so close together! She feared that there had been some kissing! Mary Crowell was a very proper woman...

She suffered the death of her first husband, a Moses, during the Civil War. As he lay dying (from "Camp Fever" as a prisoner of war) he asked his friend from Alabama to promise to look after his wife and young sons. G.M. Crowell so promised and married the widow. He moved Mary and the growing family to Texas. They took Moses' father with them
