Biography

Mary was born in 1852. She was youngest of five children born to Godfrey Young and Mary Ann Yorton.

She married William Snook about 1873. According to family lore, in the late 1870's (aprox. 1879) William got into an argument with another man over a "horse thieving" incident, shot and killed him. He then fled to Grand Junction Colorado, leaving behind his wife and four children... There he changed his name, and married Clara Zillah Park and began a new family without benefit of divorce.[1]

Mary stayed in New York and raised her 4 children. She passed away in 1901.
