They relocated to Greenfield, Indiana in the summer of 1903, then to a farm in Nashville, Indiana in 1908.

They divorced in 1919. She stayed in Nashville despite difficulties getting along with the local citizens. They had differing views (she supported women's suffrage and prohibition and opposed animal cruelty) and she developed a reputation for cantankerousness, at one point becoming embroiled in a lawsuit over a haystack. In 1934, she ran in the Democratic primary to represent Indiana's 9th congressional district and came in third out of three candidates. During this time, she exhibited her paintings throughout Indiana. She began publishing poetry in the 1930s and published the volume The Earth Is Awakening, and Other Poems in 1946. She wrote an unpublished memoir of her marriage called Life With A Genius. She also wrote works about local history and genealogy. In 1947 she sold her Nashville property and moved back to Virginia to live near family. Mary Howey Murray Vawter died on March 28, 1950 in Mathews. Vawter died on March 28, 1950 in Mathews.
