Marcius Mott b:abt.1854....d: 1878he was married to
Henrietta (Yant) Mott married in 1875, 19, March
Henrietta was born abt.1858 and not sure on death.
We do know they were married in McDonough County,IL. (Lee township) in 1875
We also have this information on Henrietta (yant) Mott;
Ms. Yant was living with her guardians at the time they were married.
I do have a copy of there marriage license..and it states as follows;
