Ann Moore McGinty is the wife of William Pitts McGinty, and is buried next to 
him at the Fairview Cemetery in Valley, AL. She was born in Jones Co., GA and 
moved to Chambers Co. with her parents, Levin and Penelope Moore.

Ann Moore McGinty 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 River View, 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.”
