Kansas has census records ending in 5 (1865, 1875, 1885, 1895, 1905, etc) available from the Kansas State Historical Society via interlibrary loan: http://www.kshs.org/genealogists/census/kansas/index.htm

Looks like the Rittenhouse family had been in Doniphan County for quite some time. You might contact Doniphan County Historical Society or their local library to see if there is an index book of marriages that took place there to find out the first name of Grace's husband. It looks as though she married sometime after Apr 1910...
