Mrs. Bettie Ann Wilkerson, Daughter of Callaway Pioneer, Succumbed To Paralytic Stroke.
Mrs. Bettie Ann Wilkerson, 77 years old, widow of the late Thomas H. Wilkerson, of Carrington, died of paralysis Friday at 12:30 o'clock at the home of her daughter, Mrs. Emma J. Baker, in East Tenth street, this city. She had been ill six months, but her condition did not become serious until Monday, when it was realized that she could not recover.
Funeral services were held at Carrington Baptist church, of which she was a charter member, Sunday morning at 11:00 o'clock by the pastor, Rev. J.M. Turnage. Burial was in the church cemetery.
Mrs. Wilkerson was a daughter of Richard Renoe, a pioneer who settled near Carrington. She was born on the family homestead April 18, 1842, and was married to Mr. Wilkerson March 8, 1862. They lived on their Callaway farm until Mr. Wilkerson's death, June 3, 1919, and after that time she lived with her children.
Besides Mrs. Baker, she leaves one other daughter, Mrs. John H. York, of Las Vegas, N.M., and one son, Otho M. Wilkerson, a farmer residing at Carrington. Three sisters also are living, namely; Mrs. Matilda Dunavant, Fulton; Mrs,. Nettie Ficklin, west of Fulton; and Mrs. Ila Hancock, Millersburg.
Mrs. Wilkerson lived a life of great usefulness. She was an old-time wife and mother, giving largely of her life to her family. Her church and neighbors however, shared in her affections, and received much attention from her. Round Prairie township has had few women who possessed so many virtues and there, among the old neighbors and friends, she will be greatly missed. The Gazette joins other friends of the family in expressions of sympathy to them.
