Ida's son Don Rex (spoke by phone 6 June 2013) states their original surname was Denton, they were not related to the Mathers. Their mother had died and the father couldn't care for them. They had 2 older brothers, Jack and Oscar, who stayed with the father and settled later in Washington. Don does not know the parent's first names but there is a Denton history that relates the story - of which he does not own a copy. The 1920 census states their father was b. in Nebraska. Ida married John Rex, they are buried in Mount Hope cemetery, Watertown, Codington Co., SD, along with Henry- now spelled Marther- who did not marry. John and Ida had 11 children. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The surname was MATHER but sometimes spelled MARTHAR or MARTHER in 19th century Iowa for reasons unknown. ========================= No death certificate on file at Clark county courthouse.
