Mary Musgrove Bobo Aaron (1850-1930s?) was one of three children born to Marysville doctor Charles Duincan Bobo and his wife, Sarah Elizabeth Bobo. Mary married Francis William Howard Aaron in Marysville in 1874.1 The following year, her new husband purchased the house now known as the Mary Aaron Memorial Museum. Mary Aaron's son, Charles Francis Aaron, bequeathed the house to the city of Marysville upon his death in 1953, in memory of his mother. It was converted into a museum and has remained the property of the city ever since.2
