Obituary Of Mrs. Mary A. Tillery
In the death of Mrs. Mary A. Tillery last week, Arlington lost one of her best loved women, a woman who by her kindness and charity and her devotion to her church won the admiration, love and respect of all who knew her.
Mrs. Tillery had spent most of her life in Arlington, moving here with her father and brothers at the age of 14, from their home in Kingston, Tenn. The trip was made in a covered wagon attended with many hardships, but to these pioneers seeking a home in a new country, they lost sight of the trials and deprivations in their vision of better things at the journeys end.
Their first stopping place was North of Arlington on the Dalton farm. Here Mrs. Tillery grew to young womanhood, making a home for her father and brothers and trying to take the place of her mother who died just before they left Tennessee. She became the wife of Patrick Dalton August 18th, 1872 and after his death was married to John L. Tillery in 1885.
She was the mother of five children and soon after Mr. Tillery's death moved to Arlington to the home on East Abram Street, where she lived continuously until the time of her death.
She was a charter member of the Arlington Baptist Church and until her health failed about five years ago, she was never absent from any of the services. She was a loyal Christian, a good mother, and a true friend, what more could be said, this describes a life of service and love and her memory will be cherished long by her children and her friends.
