Mollie Hinton Redd was the wife of Wiley Patterson McGinty, Sr. She is buried 
next to him in the McGinty plot at the Fairview Cemetery in Valley, AL. Mollie 
was born in Northport, Tuscaloosa Co., AL. Mollie Redd McGinty died of a heart 
attack, October 31, 1931, at age fifty-eight. Her gravestone shows a death date 
of November 1, 1931, but the death certificate shows death occurring at 1:00am 
on October 31, 1931. She had suffered from high blood pressure for some time.  
She had been a beloved wife and companion, raising a large family who all 
turned out to be good citizens in their communities. Her epitaph was published 
in the LaFayette Sun and reproduced on the front page of the Chattahoochee 
Valley Times on November 11, 1931.  It reads, " Mrs. W. P. McGinty Passes at 
Riverview Saturday, Oct. 31. Mrs. Mollie McGinty, age 58 years, died at her 
home in Riverview Saturday morning, October 31st, at 1 o'clock, following a 
heart attack early last Friday night.  The beloved Riverview woman had been 
suffering for some time with high blood pressure which resulted in the attack 
last Friday.  Funeral services were held from the family residence last Sunday 
afternoon at three o'clock…the deceased was a member of the Baptist church and 
had lived a useful life in that community…internment was in the McGinty 
cemetery." Wiley P. McGinty, Jr., recalls that as part of her funeral service, 
the pastor read from the last chapter of Proverbs, 31:10 - 31, “A good wife who 
can find? She is far more precious than jewels….”  She was buried next to her 
husband in the McGinty Plot at Fairview Cemetery in Valley, AL.
