    Mary Watson
    Homer and Roxa’s only living child was an adopted daughter named Mary. Mary came to the Watson house in 1907, an orphan from England. She was only supposed to stay temporarily, until a home could be found for her, but after only a week Homer wouldn't hear of sending her away. From then on, Mary always had a welcome home with the Watson’s.
