Lavosier Marcello Varner was short in stature and was "very German(Dutch)." He married young Lucretia Ellen Speake, who was part Indian. About fifteen years after his marriage to Lucretia, the young couple traveled with their five little children from Iowa to Oklahoma to take part in the great land rush. They wintered over in Parkersville, Kansas, waiting to continue their journey until after the birth of little Mary Lucy in 1885. Lavosier was a member of the Brethren Dunkard Church, and Lucretia also became a member. Although Lucretia is sa d to have been a domineering wife, Lavosier Varner loved her deeply as did her children. Lucretia was visiting on of her daughters who lived in Ellis County, when she died. Lucretia' s body was returned to Grandfield, and there she was buried in her Dunkard cap. After her death, Lavosier "died of a broken heart".
