EVA TAYLOR JOBE
The funeral of Mrs. Eva Taylor Jobe, who died at her home in Happy Valley Wednesday afternoon, was conducted at her home Friday afternoon. The services were in the charge of Rev. Gilbert Glass, pastor of the First Presbyterian Church of Johnson City. The interment was made in the Taylor cemetery near the home, where lies the bodies of many of her ancestors who helped to make Tennessee a great commonwealth.Mrs. Jobe was a daughter of Col. Rev. Nathaniel Greene Taylor (1819-1887) and Emeline Haynes (1822-1880). Col. Taylor was a prominent planter and preacher before the Civil War and when the war broke out espoused the Union cause and a reward of $10,000 was offered by the Confederate government for his body and he had to hide in the hills and when Burnside’s army came to East Tennessee he escaped to the Union lines and went north. He lectured in the north together with his son Alfred, who was called the boy orator, being only 16 and raised large sums for the Union people of East Tennessee and gave every cent of the large amount that was raised, being over $250,000. He left for the north and had to leave behind his devoted wife and seven children, but soon as possible they went through the lines to him and he located near Philadelphia. As a reward for his fidelity, a number of northern friends presented Mrs. Taylor with a purse of $4,000 to be used by the family. After the war Colonel Taylor served in congress for one term and was later appointed Commissioner of Indian Affairs. Col. Taylor’s distinguished brother-in-law, Hon. Landon C. Haynes, the silver tongued orator of Tennessee, was a leading advocate of the Confederacy and was a senator from Tennessee.Mrs. Jobe lived to see her brothers Alfred A. and Robert L. Taylor become distinguished statesmen. She was the twin sister of Mrs. Rhoda Reeves of Johnson City and a few years ago these ladies gave a lecture, “The real and Ideal,” in a number of our towns and cities and were enthusiastically received by their friends.Mrs. Reeves and Mrs. W.J. Miller survive her and her surviving brothers are Hon. A.A. Taylor, James Taylor and Hugh Taylor, is at present in Cisco, Texas and was unable to attend the funeral. She was the mother of 13 children, 11 of whom survive her, being Dudley, Alfred, Robert, Cleveland, Kenneth, Abe, Fred, Eugene and Misses Pearl, Elva and Anita. Dudley Jobe is secretary and treasurer of the Clinchfield Coal Corporation and Alfred is a Pullman car conductor.Mrs. Jobe was a cultured lady possessing the charms of the old-time Southern lady, which is admired the world over. *Source- The Johnson City comet., February 10, 1916Married E.
