Goodspeed's History of Orange County reported "John Tillery, deceased, was born in Orange County, Ind. [Note: he reported Kentucky in the censuses], March 10, 1810, the oldest of ten children of Thomas and Parthena (Harper) Tillery. The parents were among the earliest settlers in Orange County, their first home being at the old block-house at French Lick. John Tillery received a good common school education in the schools of his day, and lived with his parents until twenty-three years of age, when he was married, May 30, 1833, to Miss Rebecca Kearby.
