• Name	Mary J. KEELY
  Birth	19 Mar 1843	Shelby County, IN
  Gender	Female
  Death	Oct 1894	Rochester, Fulton County, IN
  Notes	(1) Elizabeth Ann Grubb: NOTES: The article about her husband, taken from the Fulton County Atlas, gives Mary's date of birth and marriage date. It also mentions that Mary was the daughter of James and Mary KEELY, "old citizens" residing in the neighborhood of (Adam's) father. The AULT'S three children are named and vital dates are given; the article goes on to say they first lived two years on a farm; the next three in Plymouth, Marshall County, IN. Then they returned to Fulton County and farmed two more years. In March, 1871, they moved to Rochester, and Adam began his manufacture and sale of "Ault's Proprietary Medicines". As of 1883, they were still living there. The obituary of Mary J. KEELY AULT, taken from old files of the "Rochester Sentinel", 1894, p. 121, reads as follows: Another death after years of patient suffering was that of Mrs. Adam Ault Friday morning. Her disease was heart failure and dropsy and her death had been expected for some time. Mrs. Ault was the daughter of the late James KEELY and the mother of two children . . . Mrs. Nettie Johnson and Oliver Ault. She was a devoted christian, wife and mother and died at age fifty-one. The funeral was one of the largest ever seen in Rochester and it was conducted at Grace church, where deceased was a member, Sunday afternoon, Rev. R.D. Utter, a former pastor officiating. (Compiler's note) The article on Adam Ault states that the Ault's had a third child who died in infancy. The burial place of Mary J. KEELY Ault has not been confirmed; her husband is buried with their daughter Annetta and James Johnson at the IOOF Cemetery in Rochester, IN, but there is no mention of Mary J.'s grave in the "Fulton County Cemetery Inscriptions".
