The Clearfield Progress, Saturday Evening, February 7, 1920
Member Pioneer Family Dies

--------------------

One of the few remaining links that join the present generation to that of
pioneer days was broken when at the Tyler mansion at Tyler, this county, on
Saturday, January 31, Mrs. Mary E. Tyler passed away she having numbered 86
years last June.  Her husband, John Tyler, who died a number of years ago, was
the son of David Tyler, a pioneer.  When a young girl she came into the Bennett
River valley.  Intelligent, forceful in character and educated, as that era
went, she met John Tyler and they were married.  The one child, Charles, born of
the union, survives her.  Before her marriage she taught school and a prized
memento of those days to her is a receipt which she as Miss Mary Bee, gave to
David Tyler for fifteen dollars paid her in 1858 for teaching school one month
in the summer of 1857 at Mill Run.
