ADALADE "ADDIE" GERTRUDE HARGROVE-BRYARLY was born on 10 October 1857 in Homer, Claiborne Parish, Louisiana, and she was the daghter of William Chester Hargrove (1825-1903) & Susan Evelyn Tippet (1836-1911); both also buried at S.S. City Cemetery.
Addie was a school teacher. She was raised in the Baptist Church, and became a member at the age of 12. She married Silas Wright Bryarly on 24 January 1878 at Elder Baptist Church in Hopkins County, Texas. Addie & Silas had 9 children:
Edgar Lee Bryarly (1878 - 1908),
Maud Pearl Evalin Bryarly (1880 - 1904),
Willie Odis Bryarly (1881-1882),

Doris Minter, Addie's granddaughter, remembers Addie as strict and in constant pain. Addie was diagnosed with breast cancer and was treated with medication that literally ate the cancer and her flesh. Addie passed away on 11 December 1925 at her home in Sulphur Springs, Hopkins County, Texas. Addie was buried at the Sulphur Springs City cemetery.
