MRS. JAMES PREWITT
Mrs. James Prewitt, perhaps the oldest citizen in Llano, died at her home here Sunday morning at seven o;clock after an illness of some duration. Mrs. Prewitt's maiden name was Miss Elizabeth Ann Tucker. She was born in South Carolina on March 3, 1839 and was ninety-four years of age at the time of her death. She was a grown woman at the time of the war between the States and experienced the great hardships along with others of her native State, and Alabama, where the family moved before the war. Mrs. Prewitt well remembered the days of reconstruction and all the trials which faced the Southern people at that time. In her childhood, she moved with the family to Alabama, where at the age of twelve she united with the Methodist church and for more than four score years was a consecrated, christian worker, always loyal to her church and faithful until death came to remove that pure white spirit to the father's home. At the age of 14, she was married to D.J. Gartman, on July 24, 1853. To this union three children were born. Her husband was killed in the Civil War while serving with the Confederate army, his death occurring on May 19, 1864. On September 10, 1865 she was married to James Prewitt and to this union seven children were born, three of whom are living. They are Mrs. John Pavey and W.R. Prewitt of Llano and Mrs. Jim Biddy of Lampasas. Other near relatives surviving are 39 grand children and 101 great grand children., and 15 great, great grandchildren. Mrs and Mrs. Prewitt moved to Comanche in 1870, where the husband died on November 15, 1883. Some eleven years later she was married to Bill Chism of DeLeon. She was, however, knows to her friends at Mrs. Prewitt. In 1900 she came to Llano county where she has since lived. The funeral service was conducted by her pastor, Rev. Jno. N. McKay Sunday afternoon at six o'clock, after which interment was made in the city cemetery under the supervision of Miles Buttery. Thus the soul of another landmark has passed on into the great beyond and friends grieve when they think of Mrs. Prewitt as being with us no more. The children and other relatives have the deepest sympathy of all in their hour of sorrow. - from "Texas, Death Certificates, 1903-1982" (ancestry.com)
