Lula died October 5, 1875 at 30 years of age. Her body was interred in Barry Cemetery, Clay Co., MO. A biography of Llewelly Tillery follows: Llewellyn TILLERY (farmer and stock-raiser, Post-office, Barry)

Llewellyn TILLERY was a son of Capt. Clayton TILLERY, one of the early settlers and well known and highly respected citizens of Clay county. He came here when a young man away back in 1821 and made his home in this county until his death, which occurred at an honored old age, in 1868. He was a farmer by occupation and was in comfortable circumstances. For thirty years he served as magistrate for Gallatin township and in old muster days he had command of a company of militia and was said to be a fine drill master, being a man of prepossessing military presence and a thorough disciplinarian. He was married soon after coming to Clay county but his wife only survived her marriage a short time, leaving two children at her death. Capt. TILLERY was subsequently married to Mrs. Annie M. VAUGHN. Three children were the fruits of Capt. TILLERY's last union, one of whom was Llewellyn, the subject of this sketch. Capt. TILLERY was an earnest and exemplary member of the Primitive Church. His last wife was also a member of that denomination, as was likewise his first wife.

Llewellyn TILLERY was born on the old family homestead in Gallatin township, November 3, 1843, and was reared on a farm, receiving as he grew up a common school education. On the outbreak of the Civil War, in 1861, although then only about 17 years of age, he enlisted in the Southern service, becoming a member of S.P. Daugherty's company, and remaining out until the close of the war. Young TILLERY took part in thirteen principal engagements, and was twice wounded, being disabled by his wounds for a period, altogether, of five months. He made one of the bravest of the brave soldiers of the South and on more than one field of carnage and death, attracted the attention and admiration of his comrades by his gallantry and intrepidity. Among the numerous great battles of the war, the writer recalls the following mentioned by him: Pea Ridge, Vicksburg, Corinth, Big Blue, Baker's Creek, Atlanta, Ga., and Franklin, Tenn.

After the war Mr. TILLERY returned home and resumed farming and stock-raising and soon showed that a brave and faithful soldier could make equally as law-abiding and useful a citizen. Industry and good management soon began to bear their usual fruits, and as the years have come and gone, he has become comfortably situated. Several years after the war, in 1868, he was married in Augusta county, VA, to Miss Lou M. CONGER, daughter of John S. CONGER, of that county, and he now has an interesting family of children, and is doubtless one of the happiest and most contented of "pateres familias," at least he has every appearance of being so.

He first moved to Woodford County, then Walnut Hill in Fayette County, and then to Athens in Fayette County. He is listed in the 1850 Census of Fayette County, Kentucky as a shoemaker. This material about John Evans Parker was written by my father, James Parker LaBach: NOTE: The following information is from notes of Eleanor Parker Hopkins. She researched the Parker family extensively. Information on births, marriages, and deaths she copied from the Parker Bible. Other information came from court records, family correspondence, and family anecdotes. JOHN EVANS PARKER and his twin sister Mildred were born October 4, 1795. He was the son of Watts Parker and Mary Lightburn. It is said that the house he was born in was "a mansion with 20 windows across the front," and made of English brick. When he was five years old his father was commissioned Quarantine Officer at Port Royal. Their house is believed to have been on the Rappahannock River and John Evans Parker used to tell of the family's oyster shoals and how much he liked "Yar" soup. Other records indicate that the family may have had a second house in the town. The War of 1812 must have been a busy time for the Parker family. Family tradition has it that Sir Peter Parker with the English Squadron came up the Rappahannock River. The Officers of the Squadron of Sir Peter Parker came on shore and called on the Watts Parker family, compared notes, and said they were related to the family. One story has it that Sir Peter offered the family the protection of the British fleet. He was killed later in one of the battles of the war. This Sir Peter Parker was the nephew of the British Admiral, Sir Peter Parker, of Revolutionary War fame. Watts Parker also died in 1812, probably before this visit. John Evans may not have been home at the time of the visit of the British Squadron. He later received a pension for his service in Capt. Gray's Virginia Militia during the War of 1812. It was the family custom to send the sons to England to be educated. The oldest son, Stafford Lightburn Parker, took advantage of this opportunity. Upon returning to America he became a lawyer, and later Speaker of the House of Virginia, and Registrar of the Land Office. John Evans refused to go, and stayed in America. When he was 23 he married Mary B. Powers (April 22, 1819). They had two children: Mildred Ann Parker who lived only two weeks; and Patrick Robb Parker who lived a little over a year. His wife Mary died December 9, 1823. Three years later he married Gabriella Sale (April 22, 1827). She died November 26, 1829, less than three years after their marriage. He married Rebecca Shepherd on March 10, 1831. She was the daughter of William and Rebecca Moxley Shepherd, a native of Fredericksburg, Virginia (Spottsylvania County). This marriage is documented both in the Parker Bible and the records of Spottsylvania County. Their first child, Alexander Tennant Parker, was born January 1, 1832. It must have been that same year that the family decided to move to Kentucky. Family tradition has it that John Evans Parker came by boat to Kentucky by way of New Orleans; and that his wife and her mother, Rebecca Moxley Shepherd Bullock, came to Kentucky by way of Cumberland Gap. Whatever the route they followed, they went first to Woodford County and then to Walnut Hill. Their second child, Mary Lightburn Parker, was born September 9, 1833 at Walnut Hill. Two years later they were living in Athens where the remainder of their ten children were born. John Evans was Police Judge of that town for a number of years, and Chairman of the Trustees of the Corporation. In Athens John Evans set up a tannery and continued to operate this business for many years. The house they lived in was a log house on the main street of the town. The house, much altered in later years, stood until the 1970's. The Parker house in Port Royal where John Evans had grown up was taken by Union soldiers and used as a hospital during the War Between the States. The soldiers broke up much of the furniture and what was saved was stored in Mr. Garrett's barn. The house was burned before the War was over. Unfortunately, Mr. Garrett's barn was the barn in which John Wilkes Booth took refuge after assassinating President Lincoln. In the capture of Booth the barn was burned down, and the rest of the furniture lost. The Garrett's were friends of the Parkers in Virginia. One story is that in his last illness John Evans was smiling so happily in his sleep that his daughter asked him about it. He replied, "I was dreaming I was at a dance at Mr. Garrett's." John Evans Parker is described as 6 feet tall with blue eyes and sandy hair. He loved to dance and enjoyed all forms of social events. His obituary reads: "Mr. Parker was distinguished through the long period of his life in this county as an honorable, upright and just man. No stain rests upon his character. The proud inheritance he leaves to his surviving children is that of a preeminent love of justice and truth, which above all else was the predominant and all pervading inspiration of his life. He was honorable from principle; just because it is right to be just, and truthful because it was true to be so. His reason for doing right was that it was right." John Evans Parker died July 25, 1881, and is buried in the Cemetery at Athens along with his wife and five of his ten children.

At 32 years of age Watts became the father of Mary Shepherd Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, October 1, 1880. At 35 years of age Watts became the father of Virginia Parker Lexington, Fayette Co., KY, March 1883. This biography of Watts Parker is taken from Biographical Cyclopedia of the Commonwealth of Kentucky (John M. Gresham Compny, 1896): WATTS PARKER, Judge of the Twenty-second Judicial District of Kentucky, was born February 23, 1848, in the village of Athens, ten miles east of Lexington, Kentucky. His early education was limited to the schools of the village and vicinity, and this education was discontinued before he was fifteen years old. At the age of seventeen he conceived the idea of becoming a physician, and to obtain means to enable him to attend medical lectures, he engaged in a small grocery business in his native village and read medicine until he was twenty, attending one course of medical lectures, during this period, at the Miami Medical College. At the age of twenty he abandoned the study of medicine, and at twenty-one engaged in a small mercantile business in Lexington, and there began the study of law. He soon returned to Athens, resumed business at that place, and there continued the study of law. In August, 1870, he was examined by Chief Justice Robertson for a license to practice law, and a license was granted by Judge Robertson and Judge Peters. Removing to Lexington in 1872, he began the practice of law, attended the Law School of Kentucky University in 1872 and '73 and received a diploma of that institution. In 1874 he was admitted to a partnership with J. R. Morton, and this partnership continued until the latter went upon the bench in 1883. During this period the subject of this sketch served a term as city attorney, and was at one time a member of the School Board of Lexington. 1n 1884 he was appointed master commissioner of the Fayette Circuit Court, and this position he held until January l, 1893. He was a commissioner of the Eastern Kentucky Lunatic Asylum for four years, and was president of the Central Bank from its organization until he assumed his duties as judge. In November, 1892, he was elected judge of the district composed of the County of Fayette, with the county seat at Lexington, the term for which he was elected beginning January 1, 1893, and to continue five years. He was married to Miss Bettie Burgin, March 7, 1878. Three children, Nellie Burgin, Mary Shepherd and Virginia, are the result of this union. In politics Judge Parker has always been a Democrat. His parents were John E. Parker of Caroline and Rebecca Shepherd of Spottsylvania County, Virginia. They emigrated to Kentucky in 1832; his mother died in 1855; his father in 1881. When a mere lad John E. Parker served as a soldier in a Virginia regiment in the War of 1812. He was a man of unusual energy, force of character and great courage. He was not prosperous in his business and died poor, but enjoyed the full confidence and respect of his fellow citizens. The subject of this sketch was thrown upon his own resources at an early age. He was named after his grandfather, Watts Parker, a native of Virginia and a soldier in the War of the Revolution. His obituary from Proceedings of the Tenth Annual meeting of the Kentucky State Bar Association (Louisville, KY, 1911) follows: Judge Watts Parker, Circuit Judge of the Twenty-second judicial district of Kentucky, which includes the City of Lexington and County of Fayette, was born in Athens, a hamlet of Fayette County, on the 23rd day of February, 1848. His parents, John and Rebecca Parker, came to Kentucky from Caroline County, Virginia, in 1832, and shortly thereafter settled at Athens. The early scholastic training of Watts Parker was somewhat limited, for the only school he attended before undertaking professional studies was the local country school of the neighborhood in which he lived, and he prosecuted his studies until his fourteenth year, after which time he was forced to engage in business for self support. For a while he attended a course of lectures in the Miami Medical College at Cincinnati, but a lack of funds forced him to return home and again engage in business. Still intent upon entering a professional life, be began the study of law while conducting a store at Athens, and on August 20, 1870, was admitted to the Fayette County Bar, after examination by Judges Robertson and Peters of the Court of Appeals. He did not begin the practice of law immediately, but spent two years more at his old home conducting a store and continuing his studies. In 1872 he located in Lexington and during the winter of 1872-73 he attended lectures in the law college of Kentucky (now Transylvania) University. Among the faculty at that time were John B. Huston, Madison C. Johnson, James O. Harrison and W. C. P. Breckinridge, four of the best lawyers in the history of the Commonwealth. The University conferred upon him the degree of Bachelor of Laws at the close of the law course and in 1874 he began the active practice of his profession in Lexington, soon thereafter forming a partnership with the late Judge Jere R. Morton. This relation was dissolved by the election of Judge Morton to the Circuit bench of the district of which Fayette County was then a part. Judge Morton appointed his former partner to the office of Master Commissioner of the Fayette Circuit Court and this office Parker continued to hold throughout the two terms of Judge Morton's incumbency. In 1892, Judge Morton having declined to stand for reelection, Watts Parker was elected without opposition to fill the office Judge Morton had vacated. This office he held continuously for eighteen years until his death in Lexington, on March 13, 1911. He was re-elected to the office three times, twice on the Democratic ticket and last on a Fusion ticket of Democrats and Republicans; twice being opposed and once without opposition. Three daughters survive Judge Parker, his wife, whose maiden name was Bettie Burgin, having died several years ago. Judge Parker was endowed naturally with a legal mind, and while his opportunities for becoming a great lawyer or a learned judge were limited, he improved them all with excellent results. Like Abraham Lincoln his reading was restricted to the few channels of legal literature that he could explore while struggling for a livelihood. But his keen, analytical mind, reasoning from the fundamental truths he had mastered, almost invariably solved the problems that came before him in accordance with legal principles, and above all, with right and justice. His love of the art of disputation sometimes retarded the progress of the trial of causes when he was sitting, but this was an evidence merely of one of Judge Parker's best characteristics, conservatism, and worked for right and justice in the end. Politically, Judge Parker was a Democrat of the old, conservative, Jeffersonian type-- a Democrat of Democrats. His hold was upon the great common people, of whom he was one. It is a significant fact that his political preferments did not come to him through social or family connections or alliances, for he was not a member of any particular religious sect or a believer in fraternal orders. While easy to approach and always carrying himself modestly, he was not gifted with popular manners, nor was he a "good mixer" or master of the art of propitiating public favor. He was honored with great opportunities for public service because of the love and respect that his people, the great army of voters, bore toward him.
