THE TULLIS FAMILY

The Tullis family were among the first arrivals in Miami County, Ohio and came north from Warren County in 1805. Aaron Tullis was one of 14 children born to Moses and Mary Elizabeth (Van Dyke) Tullis. Aaron served in the Revolution in Hugh Stephenson's Company of Berkely Riflemen. Aaron was first married to Jean (?), and 8 children were born to them: Sarah, Aaron, Jr., Stephen, John, William, Caty, David R. and Joel. Aaron married second Sarah THOMSON and a son John Thomson Tullis was born to them.

In 1813, Aaron deeded 40 acres and 23 poles of his land to the Town Directors of Troy for $120.30, and this land became a part of the present day city of Troy.

Sarah (Thomson) Tullis died on July 2, 1816, and on October 3, 1816, Aaron married for a third time Mary (Smith) Barbee, daughter of Adam and Elizabeth Smith. Two of Mrs. Barbee's daughters, Sarah and Susannah, had married two of Aaron's sons, William and David.

Aaron Tullis died October 29, 1840 aged 87. He is buried with his second wife Sarah in the old Rose Hill Cemetery in Troy. His third wife, Mary Barbee Tullis, passed away September 7, 1845. She is buried in the old Barbee Cemetery north of Troy.
