Sidener, of Ada, age 94, one of the real pioneer residents of Ottawa county, died at her home in Ada last Thursday, May 1st. As Mary Peed, daughter of John and Harriet Peed, she was born March 8, 1853, in Massac county, Illinois. She came to Kansas in 1867 with her sister, Mrs. Elijah Grace, with whom she made her home until her marriage to Samuel S. Sidener on October 18, 1883. "Aunt Mary," as she was best known in her late years, made the trip to Kansas with her sister and husband, Mr. and Mrs. Elijah Grace; also John Lancaster, in covered wagons. They had one team of oxen and a team of horses. They settled in a dug-out and lived there for some time, later building a log house to make their pioneer home. Those early day dug-outs were the only homes the first settlers could construct on short order and they were hazardous places in which to live. Rodents and snakes sometimes got into such homes and dirt would frequently fall from the roofs. As a youngster in those times she would go bare-foot and carry her shoes in walking to church; then stop when getting within sight of her destination and put on her shoes and stockings. Indians frequently visited their home and buffaloes roamed over their fields. She was one of the very last of those early day settlers still living in this county. They faced problems and challenges which our present day people cannot even imagine, but from such sturdy stock many of our folks have gained the ideals that will continue to live with them. Mrs. Sidener was the mother of five children, four of whom survive her. They are Mrs. Hattie Brion, of Ada; Mrs. Ura Sechrist, of Klamath Falls, Oregon; Ernest Sidener of Minneapolis and Fred Sidener, of Ada. One daughter, Alta, and her husband, also all her brothers and sisters preceded her in death. She united with the Baptist church of Ada on May 4, 1873, less than a year after this early day church was organized. She continued to be a member throughout her life and was a faithful attendant until her advanced age made it impossible for her to make it. The church had no building in those early days, but the members worshipped in an old stone school house. Funeral services were held Saturday afternoon from the Ada Baptist Church, with Rev. A.C. Cook in charge. Mrs. Ray Coatney and Mrs. Harold Mountain furnished the singing, with Mrs. Donald Larson at the piano. Pallbearers were Lee VanMeter, Rolla Hogarty, Rolland Shafer, Chester McCullick, Ray Coatney and Henry Beichley. Interment was made in the Ada cemetery. Minneapolis Messenger May 8, 1947.
