1915 from unknown Dallas newspaper Texas PIONEER WHO DIED RECENTLY IN OKLAHOMA A pioneer Texas woman passed away at the home of her son, J. C. Dulaney, at Devol, OK, at 11:30 p.m., Jan. 20, at the age of 84 years 9 months and 11 days. She was sick only twenty-four hours. Lucinda Dulaney was the daughter of Dr. J. W. White and was born in Tallipoosa County, Alabama, April 9, 1830; moved to Mississippi when a girl, and was married to William P. Dulaney at Baldwin Miss., Jan. 11, 1849. In 1850, with several other families, they moved to Corsicana, Texas, while the city was a town of only two or three stores. In 1865, Captain Dulaney moved and settled in Parker County, Texas, nine miles north of Weatherford, the county seat. At that time, their home was on the extreme frontier of Texas. The Comanche and Kiowa Indians made many raids on the settlers, killing people and driving off their stock. All supplies for the towns and the people had to be hauled on ox wagons from Shreveport and Houston, those being the only railroad towns in the country, and they marketed their cattle by driving them over the Chisum trail through what is now Oklahoma, to Abilene, Kan. Dallas was then a small village, consisting of three or four stores on the bank of the river, and Fort Worth was then a small fort on the bluff where the court house now stands, overlooking the north valley, where today is North Fort Worth and the great packing plants. Her husband owned many teams of oxen and wagons, which were employed in freighting merchandise from Shreveport to Houston to the western towns and settlements. When the Civil War came on, the Indians became more bold and dangerous, and her husband, William P. Dulaney, was chosen as Captain of a company of homeguards and remained on the fronier to protect the settlement, during which time, as he was approaching a neighbor's house for the purpose of buying corn, was mistaken for an Indian and was shot and killed. This occurred on Nov. 5, 1862, about sundown. No pen can picture or brush portray the awful feelings of Mrs. Dulaney when he was hauled home dead. Killed by one of his very best friends and a man who never recovered from the effects of his mistake. She was far out in the forest, with a house-full of small children and no one to depend upon for protection and for bread, but she fought a long and hard fight and won the battle, and lived long, to enjoy the fruits of her labors. In 1873 she sold out and moved to Falls County, Texas, where with her boys, six in number, and two girls, she engaged in farming, and where her children grew up and married, part of them still in Texas, some in New Mexico, and a part in Oklahoma, all useful citizens. Mrs. Dulaney was a subscriber to The Dallas News since its first appearance and prior to that a subscriber to The Galveston News. She was a member of the Methodist Church from her childhood and always lived a faithful Christian life. Blessed with remarkably good health in old age, she spent the last twenty-five years among her children, being sent by them whenever or wherever she wished to go, each child seeming to vie with the others in their efforts to make her life comfortable and pleasant in her declining years.
Unknown newspaper, probably from Devol, Oklahoma A pioneer of Texas passed away at the home of her son J. C. Dulaney in Devol, Okla at 11:00 p.m., Jan. 20, 1915, at the age of 84 years, 9 months and 11 days. After a short illness of about 24 hours, she falls quietly and peacefully asleep, in answer to the last call to enjoy the rest that awaits the people of God. Services were conducted by Rev. Armstrong of the Methodist church. He paid a beautiful tribute to the life and character of her, whose influence has left its visible results. The remains were interred in the Devol cemetery Jan. 22 at 3:30 p.m. Lucinda Dulaney was the daughter of Dr. J. W. White and was born in Talapoose county, Ala., April 9, 1830; moved to Mississippi when a girl and was married to Wm. P. Dulaney at Balden, Miss. in 1849; came to Texas in 1850 and in 1856 settled near Weatherford, Texas. Here she raised a large family of six sons and two daughters, all of whom are living except one son. These children grew to honorable manhood and womanhood and have ever been a credit and a comfort to the loving mother who labored so faithfully to instil into them the principles of faith and character necessary to make of them good citizens. She was a member of the Methodist church from her earliest childhood and lived a constant and faithful life. Her husband was killed in Parker County, Texas in 1863, having been mistaken for an Indian while approaching a neighbors house at night. Left a widow in early life with the responsiblity of a large family, she has fought a long and eventful fight; but with kind and gently mother love, she won the battle and lived long to enjoy the fruits of her labor. For the past 25 years, she has lived among her children being sent by them wherever and whenever she wished to go. While with her son and family here, she has endeared herself to all with whom she came in contact and there are many friends and neighbors of the family who will miss "Grandma Dulaney". Those from a distance, who attended the funeral were: Mrs. S. A. Richey of Paris, Texas; Mrs. J. G. Dulaney of Paducah, Texas; J. N. Dulaney and wife of Temple, Okla, and J. W. Dulaney of Altus, Okla. Owing to sickness and long distance, two sons and one daughter failed to get here.

Such helping hands and warm sympathy in this trying hour, will ever be remembered by us and we trust that God's blessings may rest with you all.
