My last Tombstone Tuesday post was about Elijah Ellis. Today’s post is about his wife, Elizabeth Tucker, my three-times great-grandmother. She was born in Surry County, North Carolina, but spent most of her life in Murray County, Georgia. She is buried in Eton Cemetery.
Her headstone is inscribed:
Elizabeth
Ellis
Born
Oct. 21, 1828
Died
Feb. 7, 1907
The epitaph is from Job 19:25
I know that my redeemer liveth.
