They were members of the Methodist Episcopal church, South, and were among the best and most highly respected citizens of the county. The father was a farmer and trader and became well-to-do. He was considered and was in very truth one of the progressive and substantial men of his county until the war, which almost completely ruined his fortunes. He and his wife were the parents of four children, namely: William G., who resided on a part of the old homestead; Lizzie, who is unmarried and makes her home with her brother on the old farm; John C., the subject; and Lula B., who is a missionary in South America.
