Memorial Record of Western Kentucky, Lewis Publishing Company, 1904, pp 737 [Graves] THOMAS L. GALLOWAY. In the death of Thomas L. Galloway Graves county lost one of its most prominent and useful citizens. He was identified with the agricultural interests of this section of the state throughout the period of his business career, and his life was filled with good deeds and kindly thoughts, while all who knew him entertained for him the highest regard by reason of his upright, honorable life. Mr. Galloway was born in Graves county in 1858 and was a son of Samuel S. and Adaline (Gillerland) Galloway, natives respectively of Murray county, Tennessee, and Alabama. In the paternal line the family is of Irish origin, and the grandfather of our subject, John Galloway, also claimed Murray county, Tennessee, as the place of his nativity. Thomas L. Galloway enjoyed the educational privilege afforded by the public schools of his native county, and his entire life was spent in the tilling of the soil. In 1886 he was united in marriage to Miss Susan E. Cross, a native of Graves county, and prior to her marriage she was a teacher in the public schools. This union was blessed with seven children, namely: Roscoe, T. Z., Lora, Samuel, Lillie (deceased), Curtis and Lady T. On the 3d of November, 1902, the loving husband and father was summoned into eternal rest, at the age of forty-four years, three months and twelve days, respected and honored by all who knew him. When the final summons came he was resigned and ready, administering comfort and giving advice to his life-long companion and children, and departed this life with faith and Christian courage. Mrs. Galloway is a worthy member of the Primitive Baptist church. Galloway Gillerland Cross = Murray-TN AL http://www.rootsweb.com/~kygenweb/kybiog/graves/galloway.tl.txt
