She came to Bourbon county with her mother and family when a child and they homesteaded a farm northwest of the city in what is now known as the Stringtown neighborhood. This part of Kansas was all in dense timber at the time. The father was in the Union army and the Confederates raided the place, burning their cabin and taking away their stock. Mrs. Sivey often recalled how they came to Kansas with the adults walking and the children riding on featherbeds on backs of mules. She was a member of the Christian chruch at Iola.
