Mary Seu was born in 1890 and died in 1951. She had seven daughters, two sons, a step-son and numerous grandchildren and great-grandchildren.
Mary lost her left eye while horse playing with her brother. They were holding a 'glass lamp' and accidentally poked her eye out. Mary was raised as a traditional Chinese daughter with a sense of filial duty. As a mother she arranged the marriages of her own daughters.
She raised her family in Lucerne Township just outside of Hanford, California. At some point between 1920 and 1930 she moved, with her children, to San Francisco. In her later years, she lived with her daughter Arlene, Arlene's husband Peter and their five children. I have heard from my aunties that Kirby was her favorite in their family and she spoiled him.
