History of Livingston County
from The History of Caldwell and Livingston Counties, Missouri. 1886
CALVIN R. J. McINTURFF
(Attorney at Law, Real Estate Agent, Collections and Abstracter, Chillicothe).
Prominent among the comparatively young men of Livingston county, whose career thus far has been both honorable and successful, is the subject of the present sketch. He was born in Carter county, Tenn., January 15, 1850. His father, Elder D. McInturff; was also a native of Tennessee and a prominent minister in the Christian Church. The maiden name of his mother was Harriet Jones; she was born in Sullivan county, Tenn. There were eight children in the family; of these C. R. J. was the third son. He was reared in Tennessee and his time was divided in early life between working on a farm and attending school until he was qualified for teaching. In 1871 the family removed to Missouri and settled in Sullivan county and C. R. J. came to Livingston county soon after. He was engaged in teaching for some time and in 1879 was elected school commissioner and again in 1881. During his leisure hours while teaching he was preparing for the practice of law. He was admitted to the bar in 1880 and has since given his attention largely to land, law and abstracts of titles, and he has reliable abstracts of all farming lands in the vaunts. He has served as both city and township assessor. Mr. McInturff is an independent thinker and derives his information when practical from original source. He is systematic and exact in all things and counts as worthless all knowledge that is not accurate. He possesses a high sense of honor and he is bold and unyielding in defense of right. March 6, 1877, he married Miss Linney Perren [Phoebe Malinda "Linney" Perren], daughter of Jackson Perren, an early settler of the county. She died in October, 1882, and left an infant son, Earl. His second marriage occurred October 10, 1883, Miss Lucy Turner becoming his wife; she was born in Pittsburg, Pa. By this marriage there is one daughter, Mabel.
