TUCKER, Mary Eliza, author, born in Cahawba, Alabama, 6 November, 1838. Her maiden name was Perine. She was educated at a boarding-school in New York, and, after her return to the south, married John M. Tucker, of Milledgeville, Georgia Her husband and her father lost all their property during the civil war, and she came to New York to procure a publisher for a volume of poems that she had written, and to obtain employment as a journalist. After struggling with poverty for a time, she was entirely successful, and became a regular contributor to the "Ledger" and other New York papers. Her first volume of "Poems" (New York, 1867) was strongly colored by the writer's southern sympathies during the war, but was marked by sincerity and pathos. "Loew's Bridge, a Broadway Idyl " (1868) also attracted much attention. She is the author of a "Life of Mark M. Pomeroy" (1868). In 1871 she married Colonel James H. Lambert, of the Philadelphia " Press," and now resides in Philadelphia, where she has edited several journals.
