52 Ancestor's Biography- Mary Kime Hyman


Mary Kime seemed to live a very simple life. She was born in Jeffersonville, Clark, Indiana on 05 Feb 1859 and she lived there her whole life. 

Mary Kime Hyman (date unknown)
Not a very flattering pic, but it's the only one I have.


Mary was my 2nd great-grandmother on my father's side. She was the daughter of William Martin Kime (1819-1871) & Cynthia Ann Bell (1834-1901). Mary had 5 siblings that I could find:
1. Henry H. (1851-1903)
2. Anna Eliza (1854-1932)
3. Kate (1856-1873)
4. William Martin (1861-1939)
5. John Huffman (1867-1939)


On 03 Nov 1874, Mary married James W. Hyman (1854-1926). He was a cooper, son of Daniel Andrew Hyman (1810-1860) & Mary Bedleman (1817-1895). 

James & Mary had 11 children, only 9 lived past their birth (according to census records).
1. James Henry Hyman (1878-1964)
2. Elizabeth "Lizzie" Hyman (1880-1932)
3. Joseph Hyman (1882-1910)
4. Myrtle May Hyman (1884-1953)  (my great-grandmother)
5. Stella E. "Della" Hyman (1890-1962)
6. Eva Lena "Lena" Hyman (1892-1941)
7. John Huffman Hyman (1895-1967)
8. Katherine Belle "Katie" Hyman (1897-1956)
9. Henry Ruben Hyman (1899-1951)

Mary died at the young age of 58 on 14 Oct 1917. Cause of death was Chronic Nephritis. 

Death Certificate



Mary and her husband are both buried in the Eastern Cemetery in Jeffersonville, Indiana.





I wish had more pictures of either Mary or her husband. I find myself lucky to have even just one!
