Virginian-Pilot, July 25, 1899
The announcement this morning of the demise of the venerable Mr. W. B Vicar, 
father of our well-known and highly esteemed townsman, Mr. W. W. Vicar and Mrs.  
Benjamin F. Reynolds, at the home of the latter at 4 o'clock Sunday morning, 
though not entirely unexpected, will be received with expressions of deep  
sorrow by his many friends in this city and elsewhere.

The deceased was born in Princess Anne County, October, 1823, but he moved with 
his family to Berkley in 1860, where he lived until 1869, when he came to 
Norfolk, where he has since resided. No man was better known here or more  
highly esteemed for his upright demeanor and consistent Christian life. He is  
survived by a widow, his two children, and a number of grandchildren, who have  
the sympathy of the entire community in their sad bereavement.
His funeral was held from the residence of his son-in-law, Mr. Benjamin P. 
Reynolds, No. 106 W Brambleton Avenue, at 5:30 o'clock yesterday afternoon, and 
was largely attended. The services were conducted by Rev. A. C. Hatcher of 
Queen Street M. E. Church, assisted by Rev. J. B. Merritt, chaplain of the 
Seamen's Bethel, both of whom paid deserved tributes to his Christian virtue. 
The interment was in Elmwood Cemetery. Following were the pall-bearers: Messrs. 
F. Odend'hal, William Fulford, J. H. Walters, W. R. Fentress, Caleb White and 
Dr. John N. Webster.
