Abstract:
A portrait of Mary Daves McKinlay was represented in a painting, passed down to her namesake niece, that revealed an outer gentility. A portrait painted in words also revealed gentility, in actions such as financial generosity to surviving family and the Episcopal Church of New Bern, and a view of slavery ahead of her times. Her enduring mark on New Bern may be perceived in her marker in Cedar Grove Cemetery. It may also be perceived in the pictured tablet, made by the Daves family and now in Christ Church’s graveyard.

Graham Tull Richardson’s name reflects a common practice during the nineteenth century: naming a child after the family doctor, John Graham Tull.

Noted events included: arrival of Dr. Tull’s great-great-great grandfather, Reverend Dr. Charles Chauncy, in Plymouth in 1638; his mother Eliza Graham’s marriage to Isaac Tull in 1814; and the burial of Dr. Tull’s daughter, Julia, in Cedar Grove Cemetery in 1934.
