Newspaper Obituary - June 1899 Pulaski Democrat - Pulaski, New York - Joanna Manwarren, wife of Henry Tollerton was born near Daysville, March 27, 1833, and died at her home in the same place, June 16, 1899. She was the youngest child of Dr. James Manwarren, and one brother, G. W. Manwarren of Texas, New York, out of a family of seven survive her. Essentially a home woman, she was seldom far from her circle of friends and relatives and in her own quiet, pleasant way made many lasting friendships. Peace-loving, self-sacrificing, unselfish and thoughtful of others, those who knew her best loved her most. Besides her husband, she leaves five children, three sons and two daughters to mourn the loss of one of the best mothers. The funeral was held from the house, the burial service of the Episcopal church being read by Rev. Anson of Pulaski. The interment was made in Daysville cemetery, where a great many of her kindred are sleeping. "We can not say, and we will not say, that she is dead - she is just away. With a cheery smile and a wave of the hand, she has wandered into an unknown land, and left us dreaming how very fair it all must be since she lingers there. And you who the wildest yearn for the old-time step and the glad return, think of her living on, as dear in the love of there as the love of here, think of her still as the same, I say, she is not dead - she is just away!"
