Mary E. "Lizzie" Wagner (b. Keeler) (1862-1886) was born and died in
Wyalusing, Pennsylvania. She was a schoolteacher. In 1882 she married Charles P. Wagner,
a farm laborer, and they resided in nearby Wysox, Pennsylvania. Wagner was a niece of
Orrilla W. Day (b. Vaughn), one of Mary Baker Eddy's students who was important in the
establishment of Christian Science in Chicago, Illinois. In 1886 Wagner's husband wrote
to Eddy to order a copy of
Science and Health with Key to the
Scriptures, and Wagner's mother, Mary S. Keeler (b. Vaughn), wrote to Eddy to
report that Day was giving Wagner absent Christian Science treatment and to seek
assistance with the case.
