"Death of S.C. McIntire

    S. C. McIntire was born August 26th, 1820, and died August 14th, 1895, at the home of his son J.W., where he had carefully been waited upon during the long illness which proved fatal.    Deceased was a member of the M.E. church, having united with that body fifty-two years ago, and during this time the example of devotion which he set is worthy to be followed.
    The children who survive him are Dr. G.L., of Grangeville, Att'y J.W., of this place, D.N., of Halls Mills, W.A. of Wheeling Island, Mrs. Telitha Resseger, of Ross, and two other married daughters, one at Martins Ferry and the other in Marshall county.
    The interment will take place Friday at Grace Chapel in Marshall county, on the sight of his old home, and where his wife who preceded him a few years ago was interred."

Silas and Charlotte are buried in the Grace Chapel Cemetery adjacent to the Grace Chapel Methodist Church located on Burch Ridge, outside of Moundsville, Marshall County, WV.   The church is no longer standing. It was torn down about 1978.
