Mary Ann Evans was born September 2, 1832, to David and Mary Beck Evans at Worthington. Richland. Ohio. She was their fourth child.

The following spring after her birth on April 6, 1833, her parents were baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. They sold their home in order to raise funds to enable her father to perform missionary service for the church.

She was a small child when during the middle 1830's her father, along with other faithful Ohio Saints joined the group known as Zion's Camp and moved his family to Missouri to aid the distressed Saints there. She not only--at a very early age experienced cold, hunger, and suffering at the hands of lawless mobs--but also the sorrow of death when her two younger sisters were taken away: Margaret on August 27, 1836 and Araminta on October 1, 1838. Just three years later after suffering the many hardships and getting settled in Adams County, Illinois, her mother passed away on June 20, 1841, leaving her five motherless children when Mary Ann was just nine years of age,

When seventeen years of age, Mary Ann married John Henry Glines in October 1849 in Missouri where the Evans family, among others, had settled after being forced from their Nauvoo homes until they were prepared to move on to the Salt Lake Valley. Mary Ann and John Glines came to the Rocky Mountains and made their home in Lehi until 1863 when they moved to California locating in the Los Angeles area. To this union twelve children were born and nearly all grew to maturity.

On May 13, 1884, at the age of 52 years, Mary Ann Evans Glines passed away.
