Malinda Jane (Patton) Magill was born Oct. 31, 1851, in Sullivan Co., Indiana, the daughter of John and Mary Ann (Ring) Patton.

She came to Chase Co., Kansas in 1868 with her parents, sisters and brothers, and they lived just south of the Cottonwood River where the Stone Arch Bridge stands.

She was married on January 2, 1872, in Chase Co., Kansas, to John Marshall Magill. Malinda and John Marshall Magill had ten children: Isabella M., Adaline M., John Alexander, Josephine, Walter Marshall, William Henry, Joseph Orin, James Monroe, Leona M., Arnold Sylvester Magill. After her marriage Malinda and Marshall moved to Harvey Co., Kansas, all but the youngest child was born in Kansas.

In 1890 they moved to San Bernardino County, California, where she remained until her last two years when she went to stay with her daughter.
