Tacy Atkinson

Tacy Atkinson (July 3, 1870 – December 1, 1937) was an American Christian missionary who served in the Ottoman Empire during World War I and the Armenian Genocide. As a witness to the Armenian Genocide, her accounts of the Armenian Genocide provide an important insight to the event. She is also known for helping many Armenians escape the massacres.
==Early life==
Tacy Atkinson was born Tacy Adelia Wilkson on July 3, 1870, in Salem, Nebraska, to parents of Scottish and Irish ancestry. The family later moved to Independence, Kansas, where she attended the local high school. She continued her studies at Park College in Parkville, Missouri. After a year at Park, she went with friends on a vacation trip to Oregon. She liked the state enough that she decided live there, and found a position teaching first grade. During her years in Oregon, she also continued her education, ultimately graduating from Pacific University in 1899, at the age of twenty-nine.
When she was thirty, Wilkson was diagnosed with a breast tumor. She went to a hospital in San Francisco for treatment of the non-malignant mass, where she met her future husband Herbert Atkinson, a medical intern. Herbert Atkinson and Tacy Wilkson married in San Rafael, California, on July 7, 1901, shortly after her thirty-first birthday. Herbert's family had been Christian missionary workers for generations. Tacy and Herbert eventually joined the Christian missionary movement and arrived in Kharpert in the Ottoman Empire in 1902. The Atkinsons remained in Kharpert until August 19, 1908, when they returned to the United States to raise funds for the construction of a new hospital. They returned to Kharpert on October 23, 1909. Tacy remained there through the first years of World War I, not leaving until 1917, after the U.S. joined the conflict.
