"My Great Grandfather, Hugh Granville Tilley, served as a member of the North Carolina General Assembly House of Representatives." With those words, his great granddaughter Tommie Fredricka “Isky” Ingram started a personal journey of discovery. This book provides a brief biography of North Carolina State Legislator Reverend Hugh Granville Tilley and captures events in the late 1800s that shaped his life, including his activities and accomplishments as a member of the North Carolina General Assembly in 1887 and 1889. It includes information from census reports that reveal important episodes in his life, such as education, relocation, and reinvention. It also explores how he is nurtured in a tolerant, blended North Carolina County of that era. Although Hugh Granville Tilley died young, he left his mark as a successful Farmer, a Conservationist, a Community Leader, a Politician, a Laborer, a Teacher, and a Minister. Tommie Fredricka Ingram is the aunt of the author, Teresa Johnson.
