Polly Mitchell was born in Anderson Co., Tenn. Oct. 24, 1836. In October 1852 she came to Benton County with her parents and settled on Pea Ridge and on March 3, 1853 she was untied in marriage to Bennett Tiner. This bond of matrimony was ever reverenced and held dear and sacred in the heart of each until death came on the morning of March 12 at 1:45. To this union was born 13 children, 7 boys and 6 girls, all who lived be grown men and women except one who died in infancy in 1870. Those present at her bed side in her last hours were: A.P. and J. Tiner of Garfield, J.L. Tiner, an employee of the Frisco, Miss Edna Tiner, Mrs. Nannie Parker and Mrs. Lucinda Ruddick of Garfield, Mrs. Polly Pollock of Rogers, Mrs. Dea Lawrence of Great Bend, Kansas and Mrs. Bettie Rogers of Mountain, Mo. Wm. C. Tiner of Artesia, Calif. and S.B. Tiner of Wichita, Kan. were absent. She confessed Christ as her Savior and was immersed, uniting with the Free Will Baptist church in which she lived a devoted Christian life. She was not only devoted to Christ but to her husband and children and was ready at all times to assist the sick, poor and afflicted. Her door was always open and her table fed the unfortunate ones that came her way saying that God's will should be done and turn not the hungry from your door. The funeral service was conducted at the Liberty church house by Rev. Y.A. Gilmore of Pea Ridge. The bereaved family have our deepest sympathy.
