TUTTLE, Henrietta A. (Florey)
Mrs. Henrietta A. Tuttle, one of the oldest resedents of Decatur, died at 1:30 Thursday afternoon (14 Jul 1910) at her home, 157 West William street.
Mrs. Tuttle had been ill for four months or over, but she never complained, even when her condition became critical. She was devoted to her family and to spare her children from worry she refrained from speaking of her illness oftener than was necessary. She realized last Sunday that she could not get well, and then she talked about her condition to her children and told them that she was ready to go.
Mrs. Tuttle was born May 24, 1834, on the old Florey farm east of Decatur, (the daughter of Henry and Maria Gray Florey). She was Henrietta A. Florey before her marriage to Charles A. Tuttle in April, 1855. All her life was spent in Decatur since she left the home farm, and she never lived outside of Macon county. She was widely known among the old residents of the county. She was one of the old members of the First Presbyterian church.
She leaves one sister, Mrs. Margaret Culver of Portland, Ore., and is survived by the following eight children: F.H. Tuttle, Mrs. Edwin D. Carter and S.A. Tuttle of Decatur, C.W. Tuttle of St. Louis and George Tuttle and Fred A. Tuttle of Decatur, Hon. Alonzo H. Tuttle of Columbus, O., and Homer C. Tuttle of Kansas City.
The arrangements for the funeral have not been completed.
