In 1806 Bela and Lydia Holcomb Tuller came to the Worthington vicinity, eventually purchasing farm land in the Linworth area. Son Flavel was eleven years old at the time the family migrated to Ohio. Flavel Tuller (1795-1881) was a veteran of the War of 1812 at a young age, conveying supplies to the army fronts. He and his brother operated a distellery on their farm, and later had a mercantile business just north of today’s Village Green. The brothers also operated an slaughtering and pork packing business. Flavel and Homer owned a home on the north side of the northwest Village Green, where the Griswold Center is now, which became known as the Tuller-Archer House.
Flavel & Lucinda Tuller's daughter, Henrietta, married Horace Wright, who you learned about at Stop 11.
There are 32 burials with the last name of Tuller in Walnut Grove.
From Stop 13 to Stop 14, head back on Sharon from the direction you came, and proceed to the triangular island at the base of Sharon, Cedar and Cemetery Drive.
