Tanner, Jennie Pauline

Rome Sentinel
1912

Utica, June 1 - Miss Jennie Pauline Tanner was found dead last night in her apartment at the Fostoria, 49 Oneida street. She had not been seen for several days, but it was thought that she was at her farm in Marcy. Until last evening no uneasiness was felt because of her supposed absence. Then her apartment was entered and her body found in bed. From its condition she had evidently been dead for some time.

Miss Tanner has been accustomed to go to her farm in Marcy and for what reason it was not considered strange if she was not seen about her apartment. So far as could be learned, it had not been since Monday. It was supposed all the time that she was in Marcy and mail which came to her was kept waiting her return. Last night it was learned that she was not at the farm and her apartment was entered. The body of Miss Tanner was found in bed. From the appearance of the rooms it was evident that Miss Tanner had retired and gone to sleep - never to waken.

Miss Tanner was the daughter of Levi & Mary Ann Tanner and was born in Marcy about 57 years ago. There she lived for many years, coming to Utica about 10 years ago, and made her home with her sister, Mrs. John Whitten, who but recently went to California. About five years ago she went to live in the apartment which she occupied until her death. Because of her descent from Joshua Tanner, who fought in the Revolutionary Way, Miss Tanner was a member of the Daughters of the American Revolution, belonging to the Oriskany Chapter. She also was a member of the First Church of Christ, Scientist. Besides her sister, Mrs. John Whitten of Los Angeles, she is survived by a brother, Joseph, also of Los Angeles. The only other immediate relatives are two cousins, Miss Harriet Wilcox of 8 Linwood place and Mrs. Fred Walker of Rome.

Thayer, Almeda

Utica Herald
March 2, 1875

The suicidal mania seems to be gaining in this locality this winter. On Saturday, Mrs. Almeda Thayer, wife of Chauncey A. Thayer, of Greens Corners, in the town of Rome, about 8 miles from the city, committed suicide on Saturday afternoon, by hanging herself by a rope in the corn house on the premises of her husband. Coroner Elen J. Lawton, of this city, was notified and held an inquest today. The following witnesses were examined: Samuel S. Thayer, son of deceased, Horace Sterling, M. C. West, M. D., Guernsey Greene and Chauncey A. Thayer, husband of the deceased. It seems that Mrs. Thayer, was about 48 years of age, and had been in poor health for a number of years. She had become greatly depressed and discouraged in consequence of her ill health, and had told her husband recently that if she lived until Spring she would drown or kill herself rather than live in such pain and misery, with no hope of relief. Her husband came to Rome on Saturday morning and when he left the house she told him he need not be surprised to find her dead when he returned as she felt so bad she thought she should not live until night. She often spoke of dying or was tired of living, but no one supposed she contemplated suicide. Her son, Samuel A. Thayer, aged 18, was in the house from 2 until 5 pm on Saturday. He came home about 2 o'clock and his mother told him she was sick and would lie down and did not want to be disturbed. He left the room for a few minutes and when he returned his mother was gone, as he supposed to lie down. A neighbor came in about 3 o'clock and left her little girl in his charge while she went to Rome. Shortly before five o'clock young Thayer went into the bedroom to see if his mother was (illegible) and not finding her searched the house twice. He then started for the barn, and through a hole in the door of the corn house he saw something hanging, and opening the door, he found his mother's body hanging by the neck to a rope attached to a joist overhead, her feet about two and a half feet from the floor, her right hand between the rope and her neck and her left hanging by her side. A keg or half-barrel lay a short distance away, as though she had stood upon it, adjusted the rope, and then kicked the keg away. He immediately ran for help and summoned three neighbors, Messr. Green, Brewster and Sterling, who immediately came and cut the body down and removed it to the house. The jury, after viewing the body and hearing the evidence, returned the following verdict: That Almeda A. Thayer came to her death at Green's Corners, in the town of Rome, Oneida county, between the hours of 1 and 5 o'clock on the afternoon of February 27, 1875, by hanging herself by the neck, while temporarily insane from sickness. Mr. Thayer has been a resident of Green's Corners for the past 52 years and is well known in this vicinity. He has the sympathies of the community in his deep affliction.

February 1, 1887

On Saturday at 8 pm after months of wasting disease and patient suffering, Mrs. Maria Barnard Tupper, wife of Edward B. Tupper, died at her home, 113 Liberty Street, in her 43rd year. About eighteen months ago the deceased underwent a severe attack of pneumonia, and for days hovered between life and death. This terrible disease left the patient in a weakened and debilitated condition and she drifted into consumption. Possessed of a strong constitution and great vitality, she made a determined battle against the inroad of disease. Nothing that loving friends and relatives could do was left undone. All was vain, however. The dread disease slowly but surely sapped her life away. She was not wholly confined to her bed until a short time before her death. During her last few weeks on earth she suffered severe and excruciating pain. She was very patient through her long illness and no complaint escaped her lips. She desired much to live for her husband and two little children, but when she came to know that she must go she was calm and resigned, praying in her moments of pain that death might soon come to her relief. Her last day was peaceful and free from suffering, and when she died her spirit took its departure so quietly that the friends about her bedside hardly realized that the end had come and that the one they loved so well was at rest. Mrs. Tupper was born at Lee (State Road) and was a daughter of the late John Barnard. About twenty years ago she came to this city with her mother and family and remained here till he death. For about eleven years she, with her sister, formerly Miss Etta Barnard, now Mrs. James L. Keith, was employed in the furnishing store of H. Hannahs. Possessed of a very genial and sunny disposition, she made friends rapidly and kept them easily. In October 1880 she was married to Edward B. Tupper of this city. Her husband, a daughter aged five years and a son aged one and one-half years survive; also her aged mother, Mrs. Mary Barnard of this city, four brothers, John Barnard of Lee and Henry, Edward and Jay Barnard of Rome, and three sisters, Mrs. C. F. Keith, and Mrs. James Elwell of Rome and Mrs. James L. Keith of Rockford, Ill. The family of eight children is first broken by the death of Mrs. Tupper. She was a member and communicant of Zion Church and a true Christian.

McConnellsville - Jan 18 - Mrs. Harriet Tyler - widow of the late Tracy Tyler, whose death was mentioned in last week's Sentinel - died on Tuesday at the age of 62 years at her home. Her funeral will take place from the house at 12 o'clock on Friday, just one week from the date of her husband's funeral. Her remains will be taken to Sand Bank, Oswego county for interment. Her father and other friends are buried there. Mr. and Tyler both died of typhoid pneumonia. On account of her many traits of Christian character she will be greatly missed in the community. She was a faithful member of the ME Church. A singular incident in connection with the sudden taking off of this aged couple is the death of Mr. Tyler's faithful mare, Beauty. She had carried the mails constantly for Mr. Tyler for twenty-five years and had become as familiar a figure as was Mr. Tyler himself and after he was taken ill no one could get her to eat her rations as she had taken them before. On the day after Mr. Tyler died she was driven to the woods for a load of wood, by Mr. Tyler's grandson, W. J. Daniels. In felling a small tree it fell intirely different from what he had calculated. It struck Beauty on the head and killed her.
