Mary Ann Kays - Seattle pioneer

I am looking for relatives of Mary Ann Kays (daughter of William and Elizabeth (Bracken)Kays, born Nov. 6, 1830, apparently in Putnam County, IN. She married Carson D. Boren and was the first non-Native American woman to have a home in Seattle, WA. She divorced Carson and married John W. Blakeney. Probably because of the divorce, little is known about her and her activities. She died June 21, 1905 and is buried in Lake View cemetery in Seattle. I am in contact with three great-granddaughters of hers (two Boren descendants and one Blakeney) in Seattle, but would like any more information anyone might have. And I would, of course, be willing to share what I have with others. You can reach me at deniseottoson@yahoo.com.
