She is last seen on the 1860 census in Miami Co OH. Her death date, age at death (66 years 2 mo), and marriage date are found in a Tullis family Bible. Probably buried in Rose Hill cemetery by her husband. It was reported that: "there is a lot of 'blank space' beside and around the tombstone of Joel Tullis in Rose Hill...the 1913 Flood in the area had devasting effects on Rose Hill Cemetery specifically. This is strange seeing as how it is partially on a hill, but Joel's is one of the stones that is not elevated on the hill; his stone is nearly ground level with the street actually at the base of the hill slope."
Marriage date: 27 Apr 1819
Her husband Joel Tullis collects her share of her inheritance from her father Abraham Thomas' estate. This is listed in his estate records.

"REMINISCENCES OF ABRAHAM AND SAMUEL THOMAS
From Mr. Samuel Thomas, son of Abraham Thomas, we gather the following additional reminiscences of the veteran pioneer, and of early times in Miami County.
It was in the year 1805, (not 1808 as erroneously stated heretofore,) in the month of April, That Abraham Thomas moved from Fayette County, Kentucky, to Miami County, Ohio. He was accompanied by Susannah, his wife,--who died about the year 1824[1821],--and by Adam, Samuel,(then fifteen years old,) Peter and MARY ANN; while two sons and a daughter, all married, were left behind in Kentucky. The immigrant family halted for only an hour or so at Staunton, which contained a few houses--and Felix' store: then forded the river at what is now called the broad ford, and from thence were obliged to cut a road, through the dense overgrowth, to their farm, lying a couple of miles south of Troy...
And on the farm the veteran pioneer, and companion of Boone, continued to reside until the year 1844[1843], when he passed on to that land whence no traveller returns. He was buried upon the farm besides his wife. There, too, still lives Samuel, his son, now himself an old man..."
