I had thought that maybe Mary was Harrison's single sister. Probably, it's his nephew Joel Yoder's wife (Mary Wetzel). Harrison was living with Joel in 1900. Maybe Joel married the Mary Wetzel who was Harrison's house keeper in 1870/80?? After raising her, she married his nephew and they took him in during his old age. Note that the first two children of Joel are Hannah and Harrison. Joel and Mary were married 30 Apr 1881 at Kimmel Church (perhaps Mary Wetzel was related to Harrison's sister Sarah who married a Wetzel?) (or the Mary age 4, listed in Iowa, d/o Reuben Wetzel and Matilda?) (maybe a daughter of one of Hannah's sisters?) There is no tombstone for Harrison. His plot isshown on the map in the church and the location matches the county death record. There seemed to be enough room on the plot for him and his wife Hannah, though no dates are shown. Cause of Death: of paralysis Harrison Yoder and Hannah Wagner Marriage 1853 German language marriage certificate for Harrison Yoder and Hannah Wagner married 7 May 1853 in Upper Mahanoy Township, Northumberland County, Pa. Harrison was a stone mason and farmer.
