From contributor Donna (47274925)
Mary appeared on the Iowa 1885 State Census with her family. It states that she was 2 years old.
Mary was not on the 1900 census with her parents, but they were living at 910 East Fairchild, which is the address where she died in 1903. Her parents were still living at that address in 1910. On the 1900 census, it indicates that the mother had given birth to 10 children and that only 9 were living. The one deceased would have been Edward who drowned in 1898. The 1910 census then indicates that the mother had given birth to 10 children and that only 8 were living. Indicating the death of Mary. I'm sure this is their daughter. The following death was published in the:

*Iowa City Press-Citizen, Iowa City, Iowa - Monday, 5 October 1903, Pg. 12
Miss Mary Parizek, after a prolonged illness, passed away Saturday at midnight, at her home, 910 East Fairchild street. She was an esteemed lady, who bore her protracted misfortune bravely. The services will be held at St. Wenceslaus church, Tuesday morning at 10 o'clock.

Press-Citizen - dated Monday, 5 October 1903, Pg. 12 - item in deaths
Oct. 3 --- Miss Mary Parizek, 22. Born in the city.

Birth year is an estimate based on her 1885 census entry (the age given by the WPA is apparently incorrect).
