In Hunterdon County NJ Mary married Lawrence Wene and
had children Paul and Anna before her husband died. Anna may have
been named for Mary's mother, Annie Schuyler, and Paul for Lawrence's father.
Mary next married Lawrence's cousin Conrad "Coonrod" Wene and had five
children, three of whom died young in Ohio. Only Elizabeth and William
survived to have families of their own. Mary is on record as a member
of the Bethel Presbyterian Church in Hamilton Twp. Warren Co. OH and is
buried alongside her three sons John, Coonrod and Lawrence in the Murdock
Presbyterian Church Cemetery. Also buried there are two daughters
of Paul Wene and a son of William Wene. Mary's sister Elizabeth Huffman
was married to Michael Roat and was a neighbor of Mary's in Hamilton Twp.
Her brother Peter also lived nearby for a time before he moved to Indiana
when Paul and Anna did in about 1856. Mary's tombstone, a flat, tan,
tall stone pointed on the top is identical to the three stones of her sons
buried with her in a row. Her second husband Coonrod is in the I.O.O.F
cemetery in Edenton, Clermont Co. OH. Anna Wene Elsten also had a
son Coonrod as did her brother Paul.
