Re: Need help with a question...
Mae Iry (1875-1953)
Mae Iry first connection I can find is working with DCO Opperman back in 1920. Prior to that, she had relatives who lived at Zion City, Illinois.
Mae Iry was deserted by her husband and is divorced in 1914.
She is a missionary in north China from 1921-1927. After a short visit to the states, she returns to north China and stays there from 1928 until 1935. She was a POW during WW2 and ended up in a POW camp in Japan.
After the war, Mae Iry returned to the states and retired from ministry.
Upon her second return to north China, she brought with her Kathryn Hendricks and Virginia Weddle.
