Notes

!From Chadwick's History of Shelby Co., Indiana Joseph L. Tucker Starting in life a poor boy with nothing but his strong hands and a still stronger determination, Joseph L. Tucker (deceased) accumlated a large landed estate and became one of the best known farmers of Hendricks township, Shelby county, Indiana. He was born in Essex county, New Jersey, on July 19, 1811, and was a son of Ephraim and Phebe Tucker. When Joseph was but a lad his parents moved to Butler county, Ohio, where he was engaged in farming for the rest of his life, his wife dying in Shelby county. They were the parents of the following children, all of whom are dead; Ephraim, Joseph L., James, Henry, father of Samuel Tucker, whose sketch appears herein; Daniel, Frazy, Elijah, Hannah married Elijah Hand; Phebe married first James Ross and later Edward Norris; Sally Ann first married a Mr. Lang and second a Mr. Hand; Betsy married Elijah Van Ness; Rhoda, Mary. The grandfather of Joseph L. Tucker was Ephraim Tucker. Joseph L. Tucker was married in Butler county, Ohio, to Martha Bowen, and to them the following children were born; Mary Ann married James Welliver, both dead; Dennis lives in Missouri; Maurice died young; Nancy W. married William Clark, September 1 1871. William Clark was born in 1841 and died November 6 1903. He is remembered by a large circle of friends as a man who stood high in the esteem of his fellow men. He was known for his charity and benevolence and was known to be a man who always stood ready to help those in distress. He was a kind husband and a good citizen. By trade he was a miller and followed that occupation for many years. His deeds of kindness are remembered by many of his less fortunate neighbors. There was one other child, Ephraim, now dead. Joseph L. Tucker began life for himself at an early age, receiving meager and unsatisfactory education. He remained in Butler county, Ohio, until about 1850, when he removed to Hendricks township, Shelby county, Indiana, where he began to buy land and develop it. He owned one hundred twenty acres near Bengal and two hundred acres on the Shelby pike, besides two hundred forty acres in section 14, where he lived the latter years of his life. He erected a large brick house in the early sixties and it stands today. Although poor when he started in life, he worked hard and by his thriftiness and saving methods soon amassed a confortable fortune. It is said of him that his word was a good as his bond. Although he was not a church member he always gave liberally to its support and to the relief of his fellow men, no matter who they were. There are many who are living today that bless the name of "Uncle Joe," as he was affectionately called, and "Aunt Martha," his good wife, for their many deeds of loving kindness. He was a Democrat in convictions and always took interest in the work of his party. Besides the general farming and stock raising he carried on, he was locally famous for the fine horses he raised. He was a great lover of horse flesh and his stables were noted. He died April 17, 1873, and his wife passed away in 1894. They are resting side by side in the old Mount Pleasant cemetery, rounding out an affection that ran through the course of their natural lives. Mrs. Nancy W. Clark still lives on the old home place where she has spent so many years. She is noted for her many kindnesses, and is revered by a large circle of friends who know of her life that has proved such a benediction to so many.
