PASSED AWAY
A Noted Utah Man Departs this Life
Salt Lake City, May 22.-- Last midnight Edward W. Tullidge, well known throughout Utah, passed from mortality after a protracted period of health failing and general enfeeblement.
The deceased was an Englishman by birth and was 63 years of age. He took up his residence in Utah in 1860 and from that time to the date of his death made Salt Lake his home. He possessed considerable literary ability and some of his writings will compare favorably with those of the best writers of the country. In 1860 he took editorial charge of the Utah Magazine, and later assumed the same duties on the Mormon Tribune. He was also one of the leading characters in what is known as the Godbeite movement. His history of Salt Lake City, issued under the direction of the city council, is perhaps his best known work, although his Western Galaxy and Quarterly were journals of fine literary merit.
For many years Mr. Tullidge led a very busy life and in addition to his regular journalistic labors he wrote a number of plays which are highly spoken of by critics who examined them.
The funeral will take place from Joseph William Taylor's chapel on West Temple street tomorrow (Wednesday) at 3 p.m. Mr. Tullidge leaves a wife and five children, the latter ranging from three to fifteen years of age.
Edward was married to Jane Bowring. One of their children was Joseph Bowring.
Edward was married to Susanah (Susan) Ferguson. Their children include: James Ferguson Tullidge, an unnamed infant girl Tullidge, Elizabeth Tullidge, John Tullidge, Susan "Susie" Snow Tullidge, Maud Tullidge, Nellie Eleanor Tullidge, Louise (Lulu) Tullidge, and Blanche Tullidge.
Information from familysearch.org:
After serving a mission in his native England, Edward left Liverpool on the “Underwriter” on 23 April 1861 and landed in New York on 21 May. Further research is needed to determine which company he traveled with. Ship manifest records indicate he traveled with his wife, Jane Bowring, and their son, Joseph Bowring.
His sisters, Mary Elizabeth and Jane Puckett, left from Liverpool prior to Edward, sailing on the “Underwriter” on 30 March 1860 and landed in New York on 1 May. They traveled to the Salt Lake Valley in the Jesse Murphy Company in 1860.
