Also, my mother copied her obituary into her Family Tree Maker. I would appreciate it if you could put it on the memorial. There was no indication of the publication. See below.

OBITUARY
Mary E. Henderson was born January 30, 1844, at Mercer, Ohio, and entered into rest September 23, 1926 at the home of her son, M. W. Jackson, fifteen miles east of Hominy, aged 82 years, 7 months and 23 days.
In her infancy her parents moved to Missouri. She was converted at the age of 16 and united with the Methodist Episcopal church. In 1865 she was married to Evan T. Jackson. They lived together 39 years, Mr. Jackson dying in Pawnee, Oklahoma in 1904. Eight children were born into their home, two of whom died in infancy, and three later in life. Her surviving children are W. T. Jackson of Cleveland, Oklahoma, with whom she had made her home almost continously since her husband's death, M. W. Jackson of Hominy, and one daughter, Mrs. Minnie E. Whitten of Fletcher, Oklahoma. All three of her children were at her bedside during her last illness. She was the last survivor of ten brothers and sisters; and for thirty-five years has been more or less of an invalid. She was always patient and cheerful in her affliction. She was a faithful wife, a kind and loving mother, and a true Christian. She was a great lover of little children and was always happy to have them around her. She passed away at a good old age, the work of her life fully done, and has entered into the rest remaining for the people of God, to receive the crown of righteousness which the Lord gives to them that love Him.
