TINGLE (Attorney at Law and Notary Public, Shelbyville). Mr. Tingle, a gentleman of superior education and a lawyer of learning and recognized ability, came out to Missouri from Maryland since the war and has been a resident of Shelby county for a number of years, where he has established an enviable reputation in his profession and has won the consideration and respect of the people of the county. He was born in Snow Hill, the county seat of Worcester county, Maryland, July 4, 1840. His father was Hon. William Tingle, for over 20 years the judge of the Twelfth Judicial Circuit of Maryland, and regarded as one of the ablest judges and soundest lawyers of that State. Mr. Tingle's mother was a Miss Sallie M. Williamson before her marriage, and was a daughter of Rev. Stuart Williamson, an eminent Presbyterian divine, well known throughout the States of Delaware and Maryland for his great ability and profound piety. Both parents were of English and Scotch descent and were of old and highly respected families in those countries. Mr. Tingle was reared at Snow Hill and after a preparatory course in the schools of that place, entered Newark Academy, in Delaware. After taking a course at Newark, he entered the University of Pennsylvania and was a student there when the war broke out. He was preparing himself for the legal profession and, being in the senior class, would soon have graduated in law, but had to quit the University on account of the war. Coming home, he was admitted to the bar by Judge Thomas A. Spence, his father's successor on the bench. During the war his brother, Stuart Tingle, also a lawyer and on Gen. Lee's staff, returning home, was captured and imprisoned at Fort McHenry and afterwards killed, and Eugene D. was suspected by the Federal authorities of being connected with his brother in intrigues for the interest of the South, so that he was banished to Canada, to remain until after the war. He then returned, the war being over, and took charge of Buckingham Academy, at Berlin, Maryland, and afterwards had charge of the Union Academy at Snow Hill. Subsequently he practiced law at that point until 1869, when he came to Missouri and located at Shelbyville, where he opened a law office. He was married here March 11, 1870, to Miss Kate Boettcher, a native of Shelby county, Mo., an accomplished lady, who was educated at Columbia, Mo. After practicing here for about three years, he returned to Maryland, on account of the death of his mother. In 1874 he located at Barry, Ill., being admitted to the bar by the Supreme Court of that State. Returning to Shelbyville, however, in about 18 months, he was elected Superintendent of Schools for Shelby county, and is now successfully engaged in the practice of the law at that place. Mr. Tingle is a Democrat of the old school and is proud of his Maryland ancestry, and devoted to his native State and her traditions. Mr. and Mrs. Tingle have one child, Tommie. The eldest, William, is deceased, dying at the age of 11. Mr. and Mrs. Tingle are members of the M. E. Church South, and Mr. Tingle is a member of the Masonic order.
