| Text | Sam Gillmore and B. Holman of Mano were
here Monday. They reported the death of John Toller who died at the home of
his daughter, Mrs. James Eagleston, near Mano. John Toller was 84 years of age and one of the pioneers of that section of the county. He was a good citizen and lived a quiet life, taking little interest in public affairs. He leaves three sons, Ambrose, Elisha, and Wid, and one daughter, Mrs. James Eagleston. The funeral services were held Tuesday and the remains laid to rest at the Mano Cemetery. Research Note: The paper gave his age as 84 years old and spelled his name as Toller. His death certificate gave his name as Towler and his parents as Elisha and Elizabeth (Phillpot) Towler, both born in KY. He was widowed, a preacher and a father. His daughter Elizabeth Eagleston gave the information. His wife was Nancy in the 1880 census. His son Elisha Towler is buried in Easley Cemetery. |
