Her parents in an early day moved to this township and she was educated in the country schools. She was united in marriage to John Marlatt, Jan. 27, 1875. For a number of years they resided on a farm southwest of Maroa. About forty years ago, they purchased the farm southeast of town where they resided until ten years ago, when they bought property here, and retired from farming.
