Mariah Jane Brown Carder

Submitted by: Leila Evett

Mariah Jane Brown was born in Virginia 14 November 1835. She married her teacher, Professor Braxton Carder in 1851 and they left for Missouri on horseback. To this marriage were born five sons, James Henry, Bud, Albert, George and Byrd; two daughters, Rose and Sara. In 1910 her son James Henry Carder brought her from Missouri as a widow to Oklahoma to live the remainder of her life. She died at his home on the 3rd of January 1913 and is interred in the Kiowa Cemetery.

The stone on her grave has been broken. Also the name is spelled incorrectly. It reads Mariah J. Cardner. Should be Carder.

The unmarked stone beside Mariah Carder's grave is that of Paul Carder, son of Emmit H. Carder and Rose Bashaw, a grandson of James Henry Carder.
