     Mary Ivel Hotchkin was born on 10 October 1907 at Tecumseh, Johnson County, NE, USA.^1,2,3 She was the daughter of William Smith (Will) Hotchkin and Emma Lucinda Kinman. She married Jerry Kenneth Speakman at Sturgis, Meade County, SD, USA, on 23 May 1927. Marriage Index refers to her as Irel Hotchkin..⁴ Mary Ivel Hotchkin and Jerry Kenneth Speakman were divorced after 1930 at Detroit, Wayne County, MI, USA. Still married at the 1930 Census. Mary Ivel Hotchkin married Floyd M. West on 27 November 1933 at Powder River County, MT, USA. Montana County Marriages 1865 - 1950.. She married Belford Leroy Skinner at Billings, Yellowstone County, MT, USA, on 27 June 1940. Montana County Marriages 1865 - 1950..

Her daughter Connie furnished this death date..³ She was buried at Quartzsite (Hi Jolly) Cemetery, at Quartzsite, La Paz County, AZ, USA. Prominent as the burial place of Hi Jolly the camel trainer who brought 30 camels to the desert for packing..

     Information on Mary Ivel is from her brother George and notes of his mothers. Junella Denslow Reep says that her birth was 1908. Mary Ivel's adopted daughter Connie confirms her birth on 10 October 1907 and says that it occurred in Central City, not Tecumsch, NE. Connie gives her death as 1989, not 1988.
     She is buried in a desert cemetery, at Quartzsite, AZ, near the tomb of Hi Jolly the famous Camel Herder, hired by the US Army to handle a Camel experiment on the desert. A simple hand painted cement block with a heart painted on it saying, "Beloved by children and grandchildren," serves as the grave marker for her and Belford. This monument gives her death date of 21 December 1988. The gravestone also gives her name as Iver. It is interesting how the Compiler and his wife Catherine found this grave. We enjoy the desert during the winter and like to take our motorhome out to the Quartzsite area especially around the first week of February when they have the worlds largest swap meet. This cemetery being a interesting one, we decided to investigate the graves, and there was a member of the family.
