Obituary.
Mary A. Chaplin was born in Monroe County, North Carolina, Oct. 27, 1819 and was married to Wilson Allen Dec. 25, 1841, to whom were born ten children, five sons and five daughters, two of the latter being dead. They moved from North Carolina to Johnson County in Sept 1859, where they resided most of the time until her death, which occurred May 2, 1890, at her daughter’s home, Mrs. Mahala George, in Roachdale, Ind., of cancer of the face. For months Mother Allen endured untold sufferings, patiently awaiting the Lord’s call home. Her remains were brought to Greenwood Saturday morning last and the funeral preached in the M.E. church by Rev. C. W. Tinsley, after which her remains were buried in our beautiful city of the dead to await the resurrection morn – when our dear dead mothers will be reunited in spiritual state in the celestial city of God’s children. Aunt Mary was a mother and grandmother in the full meaning of that dearest and tenderest word ever uttered, save one in the English tongue. Farewell, mother. Greenwood, Ind., May 6, 1890.
