Mary McClennen Hay, daughter of Robert H. and Ann McRae, was born Dec 22., 1865 in Maryborough, Victoria, Australia. She was baptized into the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints Aug 11, 1880. I don't know too much about my mother. She passed away when I was three days old. My sister, Annie, who raised me, said Mother had a sweet disposition and was loved by everyone who knew her. She was married on June 10, 1903, in the Salt Lake Temple to Alfred William Harper. Father met the Hay family when he was on his mission in New Zealand. They later came to Utah. Mother was the oldest of four children. Her brother was James R. Hay; her sisters were Annie who married George A. Whitaker, and Sarah, who married Charles W. Rogers. Her father was of Scotch Royalty and was an officer in the Scoth army. He was sent by the King to Australia, where his family was born. They later moved to New Zealand where they joined the Church. Robert Hay, her father passed away there, and grandmother brought the children to Salt Lake City, Utah. October 18, 1904, she passed away in Lindon, Utah, leaving her tiny baby daughter to the care of her sorrowful husband. She was buried in Pleasant Grove, Utah Co., Utah on October 22, 1904.
