Mary J. Tillman © Aline Chronoscope 02-13-1920 Submitted by Jo Aguirre
August 21, 1833 - February 8, 1920
Memorial services were conducted at the Guy Carrol home at McWillie Monday at 12 o'clock for Miss Matie Tillman, and interment was in the Eastern Star Cemetery at Aline.
Mrs. Effie Crane and Miss Tillman lived about 15 years on a farm just west of Aline and moved about five years ago to McWillie where they made their home with her sister and niece, Mrs. Guy Carrol, and miss Tillman's sister, Mrs. Annie Sutton, who is 89 years of age.
Rev. D. A. Myles delivered an appropriate address from that good old text, "In my Father's house are many mansions."
Mary Jay Tillman was born in New Paris, Ohio, August 21, 1833, and died February 8, 1920, aged 86 years, 5 months and 18 days. She leaves to mourn one sister, three nieces, one nephew, 12 great nieces, seven great nephews, 16 great great nieces and six great great nephews.
She united with the Methodist Church in 1880, and has lived a faithful Christian life. She had a great love for flowers and for little children and has been very much interested in the Christian Home Orphanage in Council Bluffs, Iowa, for about 30 years and has helped it all she could.
Although she has been in poor health for a number of years, she bore her suffering with great fortitude and patience.
