Talley McKillip
Talley McKillip, retired farmer, Jeffersonville, is a son of John and Betsy (Whicker) McKillip, who were born, reared and married in North Carolina. At an early day they came to this county, where our subject was born, April 25, 1819.
April 23, 1843, he was married to Miss Nancy Walthall, daughter of the late Betsy Walthall, of Greene County.
He has a farm of three hundred acres, situated one and one-fourth miles north of Jeffersonville, which is well improved. Has rented his farm, and is now retired from active business, as by good management he has accumulated sufficient to keep himself and wife in plenty in their declining years. They have had a family of seven children, four of whom are deceased. Two children are married, and one, Idelia, is at home with her parents. Himself and wife are members of the Universalist Church; are good neighbors, and respected citizens.
