[At this time, Levi's wife was the daughter of Elizabeth Meacham whose name was Hannah Rose Gardner. Probably to escape persecution from polygamy, Elizabeth took back her first husband's name and lived as "mother-in-law" in this home with her daughter and husband. The 1880 census shows an age difference of about 11 years between Elizabeth and Levi, while this one shows only a one year difference. When Elizabeth died in 1903, her daughter, Hannah wrote the following poem about her mother:
"Farwell, dear mother, sweet thy rest,
Weary with years and worn with pain
Farewell, till in some happy place
We hall behold thy face again.
Tis ours to miss thee, all our years,
And tender memories of thee keep,
Thine in the Lord to rest, for so,
He giveth his beloved sleep.
