She leaves to mourn her passing her husband and sons, grandchildren Charles, Leon, Donna and Stanley; brothers Ranzy, Fred, and Harrison Ennis; plus a host of relatives and friends. Mother passed away at her home with the evidence of that greater life after death. She was converted about the age of 15. In later years she, with her family, united with the Oak Ridge Methodist Church where her membership remained until her death. She was a faithful wife and mother all through her entire life, always considerate of others - even at her own sacrifice. There can be no tribute paid her that she was not worthy of. While Mother was on her bed of affliction she sang the old hymn "I am walking in the Light" and "My Path is shining Bright". Then rejoiced in the hope of Eternal Life which but God himself can give. Mother we will miss you beyond what any words can express, but in our of loneliness you will guard over us. We expect to meet you again when the trumpet shall sound and the dead in Christ shall arise. | Headstone Gerald Haddock Death Certificate Obit Phyllis Long Photo Donna Cooper Darla Marbut |

Feb. 12, 1883 Barry Co., MO |
Inscription: "Husband William Terry died May 15, 1869 and buried in Greene Co., MO while visiting children." - Research Note: Their daughter was Melinda Terry who married Elisha Ennis. - Terry Family History Book. Marilyn A. Hudson, 2011 - William TERRY (William, John ) was born to John and Esther (BROWN) TERRY, one of the post-revolution generation, on 7 November 1785. His family was living in the northeastern finger of what came to be known as the state of Tennessee. Barbara ENNIS was the daughter of Elizabeth ENNIS (ca. 1767-1851), born 24 October 1788 in Burke Co., NC. No father is known. It is believed that her mother never married, however, she did have three children: Barbara (1788-1883), Nancy (ca. 1790-1848) and John (1792-?). Elizabeth ENNIS, Barbara's mother, was the daughter of James ENNIS (ca. 1735-?). She was probably born in Augusta Co., VA since that is where her father and grandfather can be located. Barbara died 12 February 1883 at the "Poor Farm" near Cassville, Barry County, MO. She was 94 years old at the time of her death. While buried in Barry Co., the exact location of her grave is not verified. It was about 1810-1816 that William and Barbara headed into the newly opened Indiana Territory. The dates of the birth of several children indicate that they were most likely in Gibson County, IN beginning about 1812-1814. They would call the area home for about the next sixteen years. For the next two decades (1832-1857) they lived in the three county area of Washington, Benton, Madison in Arkansas. There they may have lived in a log cabin amid the forested hills of the area since cabins where the most common style of home for these early pioneers. William TERRY and Barbara moved into Barry County, MO in 1860. Legend has it that on a visit to one of his married children in nearby Greene County, William died on Saturday, 15 May 1869. It seems appropriate for a man who seemed to always seek out the virgin country, the frontier regions and the unknown places, that the location of his grave in Greene County remains a mystery. - Another Photo | Photo Note Carol Wilkerson Terry Family History Phyllis Long Photo Donna Cooper Darla Marbut |
