Argus – January 19, 1892 Mrs. Mary C. Tucker No sadder thought or feeling can ever cross our threshold than to know that mother is gone. Never more to met the fond and loving embrace of our dear mother is too sad. Such were our feelings on the 23rd of last December as we stood by and saw the casket lowered down in the grave, and heard the solemn sound of the dirt as it gently fell from the hands of many friends. But then, how bright and beautiful it seemed only to know our dear mother is “asleep in Jesus.” Mrs. Mary C. Tucker was born June 26, 1814 and died at her home in Henry County December 28, 1891. She was a member of the Baptist Church, joined when quite young, and all along the rugged path of life she ever looked to him “Who doeth all things well”. At the age of 26, she was married to Mr. B F. Tucker of Butts County. They had three little girls born to them. When the youngest was only two years old the father died, leaving her in quite a helpless condition but her never tiring energy and christian fortitude helped her to surmount the many obstacles as they themselves through life.
