AWARDS

​

Margaret Pearl Tyler Ellis (1860–1947) was the youngest child of John Tyler and Julia Gardiner. She married William Munford Ellis in 1884 and lived near Shawsville, Virginia. Letters from her husband in Washington describe her management of their farm, while family papers preserve photographs and letters. An archival biography appears to assign her daughter Pearl’s Army nursing service to the mother. That military career and conflicting June birth dates remain qualified.

EARLY LIFE

Pearl Tyler was born on Jun 12, 1860. The surviving biographical summary provides only limited evidence about childhood, schooling, and the daily circumstances of the household, so those details are not reconstructed here without documentation. What can be stated securely is that this person belonged to the interconnected family world from which HistoryGPS traces participants, relatives, and later descendants of the Revolutionary generation.

No distinct public profession or office for Pearl Tyler is established by the source summary used for this entry. The surviving record is primarily genealogical and documents family identity rather than an independent public career.
