 Presbyterian banner. (Pittsburgh, Pa.) December 30, 1863
Died at Richmond, Jefferson County, Ohio, November 10th, 1863, Mr. John M'Gregor, in
the 65th year of his age.  The deceased was born in Washington County, Pa., in the
bounds of the congregation of Pigeon Creek. When a young man, he removed from the
place of his birth and settled in Richmond, Ohio, where he resided until the time of
his death. In the Fall of 1825, he united with the Two Ridges church, of which he
afterwards became a Ruling Elder. This relation continued until in the Fall of 1852,
when he was dismissed, to assist in the organization of a Presbyterian church in
Richmond. In the death of Mr. M'Gregor, the community has lost one of its best and
most highly esteemed citizens; the church, one of its most exemplary, and useful
members; a widow has been bereaved of an affectionate husband; and children, of a
kind and beloved father. He was the father of a large family of children, seven of
whom are still living, three sons and four daughters, the moat of whom are
consistent members of the church. His youngest son is now pursuing a course of
theological study, with a view of entering the ministry, and two of his daughters
are the wives of ministers of the gospel. One is the wife of Rev. Wm. A. Davidson,
of the Liberty Street M. E. church, Pittsburgh, Pa; and the other, the wife of Rev.,
J. H. Stewart, of the North Presbyterian church, Chicago, Ill...
