  	Mrs. Betsey Tallman, who died at the residence of her son, Capt. Elias Tallman of Castile, on September 7, 1888, had reached the age of 94 years and 4 months. She was first married in Dutchess Co., N.Y., where she was born, to Mr. Hull, by whom she had one son, W.H. Hull, at Belvidere, Illinois. In 1814, after the death of Mr. Hull, she married Giles Tallman and with him, moved to the "Genesee Country," in the spring of 1816 and bought the "Betterments" of an early settler, named Johnson, on the west side of Silver Lake and resided there until her death, having been on the same farm for 71 years. The last 50 years of her life, she was a widow. Mr. Talman died in 1838. She had five children by her late husband and whom are all living except for one daughter. She never rode on a train, or even the canal. She did twice visit her old home in Dutchess Co., traveling by wagon each time. She was the oldest member of Castile Baptist church. She was buried in Mt. Hope cemetery in Perry, beside her husband, whose remains had been removed from the old Tallman neighborhood burying ground near the head of the lake. Mrs. Tallman was probably the oldest resident of the county and stood at the head of five generations, when she died.
