Charles Francis Aaron (1875-1953) was a real estate and insurance entreepreneur in Marysville and the only child of Mary Aaron and Francis William Howard Aaron. He grew up in the house now known as the Mary Aaron Memorial Museum and inherited it after his mother's death in the 1930s. He then moved back into in it with his wife, Bertha Cornforth Aaron, whom he had married in 1903.1 The couple had no children. Charles bequeathed the house to the city upon his death, to be turned into a museum and named in memory of his mother.2
