THE GOSPEL MESSENGER
Butler, Ga., Dec. 1892, Vol. 14, No. 12
William McCrary was born October 13, 1818, and died
in his seventy-third year at his residence near
Geneva, Ga., January 4, 1891, leaving an
affectionate widow and six children to mourn their
loss. Yet they weep not as those who have no hope,
for they have reason to believe that their beloved
one is at rest. Though he never made a profession of
religion, he was a firm believer in the Primitive
Baptist faith, and was ever ready to lend a helping
hand to the church at Upatoie, where his wife and
one daughter were members. He was kind, devoted and
affectionate to his family, friendly and neighborly
in his community, and he therefore had many warm
friends and no enemies. He is sadly missed by his
bereaved family and community. He was married to
Nancy F. Cox, May 2, 1839, with whom he lived
happily until his death, and to whom were born ten
children. May the Lord bless and comfort the
afflicted. The funeral services were conducted by
Elder John Richard Respess.
