1.5.1.10. William Carroll Human born May 9, 1836 in Montgomery County IL married Mariah Caroline King February 12, 1854 in Polk County Missouri. Mariah was born December 2, 1834 in TN. William died December 27, 1926 in Spokane, WA and Mariah died March 21, 1926 at 1:30 A.M. on a Sunday morning in Spokane WA. William was a member of the Missouri State Legislature. He was a member of the Missouri Cavalry during the Civil War. He was a Captain and his outfit chased a group of bushwhackers right into the town of Humansville. When Great-Great Grandpa Human got a chance to look up from the heat of battle he looked toward his own house and saw Mariah, his wife, out in the street taking shots at those bushwhackers. William and Mariah moved to state of Washington. On February 12, 1924 they celebrated their 70th wedding anniversary. The article from the Spokane Daily Chronicle dated February 14, 1924 says that bullets were flying pretty fast that day for about 30 minutes when Mariah Human was guarding her home. The advise Mr. Human gave and was reported in the paper was to "marry early and stick to it". "An open air life and my family were my pleasures. I've got one little girl in California and the baby lives back east", he said. The little girl is 69 years old and the baby is 68. (The baby he speaks of is my great-grandmother Cinderella Almanza Rogers who was living near Anderson MO.---Dorothy Zongker). He died at age 90 and she at age 92. They had 4 children.

Cinderella signed her name C.A. Rogers, as it was too long to write out in long hand. She died April 29, 1943 in Anderson, MO at age 86. I have heard my Dad William Kelley tell of the time they went to Missouri to visit with the family and his Grandmother asked my Dad and his brother Everett to gather chips so she could start a fire in the house to keep them warm. They were well in their teens. I understand they could not find any chips and came back with that news for their Grandmother Rogers. They thought she wanted cow chips, as they were accustomed to using in eastern Colorado, but she really wanted wood chips. There were 9 children born to the Rogers family.

They began their married life on a farm near Terry, MO. Virgil farmed in Oklahoma and returned to Springfield MO to work on the Frisco Railroad and a dairy. On May 15, 1915, the Virgil Kelley family which consisted of 7 children (William, my father, was 4 years old) traveled 600 miles in two covered wagons to Colorado to take advantage of the Homestead Act that provided a person to receive a deed to land if he lived on it for three years and built some improvements such as a house and barn. They arrived at the homestead on August 13, 1915 to reside in a half dug-out with a dirt floor. A new home was built when Great Grandfather Eugene Kelley, a carpenter, arrived from Missouri in the early 1920's. He helped design and build their home. He was helped by Grandpa Virgil Kelley and his sons. The house was completed in the fall of 1921. They lived on this farm the remainder of their years together except for a short time when the family purchased a home in Holly to be close to junior and high school for Paul and Rogers. They had 11 children.
