| Notes |
- -------
Mary Magness Youngblood was the member of the Magness family that was known as "a character" in a fun and interesting sense. She was a very intelligent and interesting woman, a good conversationalist, a wide reader of history, a teacher in her early life,and later a home entertainer and a wide visitor.
She smoked her clay pipe in chimney corner and entertained all. She was the family historian and genealogist, and is reported as having written the family history, which unfortunately for this history and genealogy was lost after her death.
They had a difficult marriage and after the birth of two daughters they separated. Twenty years later they were reconciled and lived in Smithville where Ranse was a blacksmith.
