Born in Lexington, SC, daughter of the late James Wesley and Hannah Elizabeth George Lindler. A 1934 Graduate of USC, she had taught school in Williston before moving to Aiken in the 1940?s. She then worked in the law offices of Toole & Toole for several years and began buying, fixing and re-selling properties in the Aiken area, something very unusual for a woman in those days. Mercadeese traveled extensively with her family, allowing them to see different parts of the world. She was a member of St. Paul Lutheran Church and was also involved with countless civic and recreational organizations.
Besides her parents, she is predeceased by her husband; Arthur Lee Austin, two brothers; Frank Lindler and George B. Lindler and a sister; Gwendolyn Broughton. She is survived by two daughters; Theda Austin, Aiken and Debbie Gilly, Gilbert, three grand daughters; Michelle Clark, Heather and Margaret Goulding and one great-grand daughter; Alexis Clark.
