Bro S M McCullough, Sr, was born in Anderson District, S C, April 20, 1822, and 
died at Delta, Clay County, Alabama, June 13, 1908. He was taken very ill at 
11:00 a m and died at 3:00 p.m. the same day. Bro.  McCullough was one of the 
pioneers of this section of this country having settled in Delta sixty-eight 
years ago where he remained until his death. He was married first to Miss 
Malinda Reagan to which marriage there were born five children. He was married 
the second time to Mrs. Mariah McClintock and the third time, to Mrs. Francis E. 
Snow to which marriage there were born three children. He was a kind friend and 
loyal husband and a considerate father to his children. He was raised to the 
degree of Master Mason in 1856 and was a charter member of Hardy-Howle Lodge No. 
459 where he held his membership until he was called to join the great Lodge 
above. He was a soldier in the Confederate Army and was true to his country; He 
was a member of the Christian church and was true to his convictions until 
death. His funeral was preached by Revs Asa Hobbs, A G Preston and J A Shadix 
with others taking part. His remains were interred in Delta cemetery with 
Masonic honors. Whereas it has pleased almighty God to remove from our midst our 
beloved Brother S M McCullough therefore be it resolved...
W.H. Preston, Ira H Garrett and J. W. Watwood
