NOTE: The following obituary was published in the Clarksburg newspaper, however, the information is full of inaccuracies. Flora Bailey's father is JOHN Bailey who died in 1849. It was her uncle, Minter Bailey Jr., who was the founder of Bailey House and sheriff and died on his way to Charleston in 1867. Uncle Minter was "a wonderful father-like figure to all 8 of his brother's children." Theresa Brown.
