Joseph married Susan the 20th of Aug 1893 in Deadwood, South Dakota. Joseph L. and Levi were born 8 months later. Levi only survived 4 months before being called home.

Both remarried. Deadwood is a small town in the Black Hills of South Dakota. Though occupying only about 3.8 sq. mi., Deadwood is a huge name in U.S. history, infamous for its rowdy reputation and the assassination of U.S. Marshall James Butler Hickok. Deadwood's population is less than fourteen hundred. Its small physical size and small population is the result of geographic constraints from the surrounding hills. These steep hills, however, were vital to Deadwood's founding... the town got its start as a mining camp during the gold rush of 1876 when gold was discovered in them. Several years later, at the age of 66, Joseph Mook died in a mining accident. Although Levi was born later than 1880, scarlet fever and diphtheria epidemics from 1878 to 1880 caused the deaths of a great many other children. Calamity Jane helped nurse many sick children and their moms in the basement saloon of the Bullock Hotel. Over 350 of these children are buried on Mt. Moriah. On Wednesday, October 28, 2009, the DEADWOOD HISTORIC PRESERVATION COMMISSION requested Cemetery Headstone Grants for c. #0903 Joseph M. Mook d. #0904 Levi J. Mook and e. #0905 Eleanor Mook along with several others; this being the reason for the more modern headstones.
