Hey deb

Is this Mary alice  the same one who was married to LEON OR Leo Marks?

They had sons  Charles Marks, Edward Marks and daughter Edith Lillian Marks ( m  Hugh Krampe Sr) ??

Word has it that Leon died between 1901 and 1908 and Mary Marks took Edith to the KY Side of the Ohio river and put Edith in a Catholic Convent to take vows......( marks side was Jewish)
Yes, she married Leo Marks.
