Born July 5, 1855, at Wallsburg, Wasatch Co., Utah, she grew up ther e a nd married one John William Gilson in 1871. Shortly after her parents came to Arizona in 1878, Mary and her husban d f ollowed, but their life was not happy together and they were divorce d whi le living at Juniper. Mary went to work for George Scott, a prominent sheep owner, and there s h e met John Francis Norton and married him on June 4, 1884. No childre n we re born to either union. Most of Mary's life was spent in Pinetop. She had a little cabin there a n d lived in it until 1932, alone after her husband's death.
