Mary Surpluss (1870-1957) Hurt in Fall

From the Walnut Valley Times (El Dorado, Kansas), 26 Feb 1892, Fri, Page 7 --


Miss Mary Surpluss of Rosalia, in jumping form a wagon yesterday, fell, struck her head on the ground and suffered severe bruises.

Mary Abigail (Surpluss) Hembree was my great grand-aunt on my mother's maternal side.  She was born August 1, 1870 in Rosalia, Butler, Kansas, and died June 19, 1957 in Wichita, Sedgwick, Kansas.  She married Charles Franklin Hembree (1861-1945) on May 27, 1907, in Butler County, Kansas.

She survived the fall. ;-)
