She was born March 3, 1830 in Jones Co., Georgia and was the daughter of Levin and Penelope Patterson Moore, early Chambers Co. settlers. She died in 1898 of acute bronchitis, and her son, James Madison McGinty wrote her epitaph, which was published in the Gospel Messenger, in 1898, pg. 326. It reads as follows: “With a heart full of sorrow and deep affliction, I write to inform our relatives, brethren, and sisters of the death of our dear mother. Mrs. Ann M. McGinty, who died at her home near RiverView, Chambers Co., AL, Feb. 5, 1898, sixty-eight years old less twenty-six days. She was the daughter of Levin and Penelope Moore. She was born in Jones Co., GA in the year 1830, and in early life moved with her parents to Chambers Co., AL; and on the eleventh day of April, 1846, she was married to W. P. McGinty, and to this union were born eleven children, nine of whom, with her aged husband, mourn her death. She was a faithful and true wife, a kind and good mother, always ready to administer to the wants of her family. She was a great sufferer for a number of years, but bore her afflictions with great fortitude. She was a strong believer in the doctrine of salvation by grace, having joined the Primitive Baptist church at Ephesus, Chambers Co., AL, in the year 1846, which church sustains a great loss.” File at: http://files.usgwarchives.net/al/chambers/obits/m/mcginty419ob.txt This file has been created by a form at http://www.poppet.org/alfiles/ File size: 2.0 Kb
