Alpheus and Pheobe Sine established their homestead on the headwater's of Kings Run, Blacksville, WV and spent the rest of their lives here. The house he built here was a two story and half built of hand hew longs. In the later years these logs were covered with siding. It later became the summer home of Colonel Hiram Kent Sine. Alpheus Sine was a farmer and dealer in lumber. In his youth he helped drive life stock over the Allegheny Mountains to Market in Baltimore, Maryland. One of the first oil wells in Monongalia County was drilled on the Alpheus Sine farm on Kings Run. Alpheus and Pheobe had five adult children others died young, Prudence, Sarah Ann, Delpha, Louisa and Rezin W. Sine.

Notes of Hazeltine M. Sine Mills (daughter of Rezin Sine, sent in a Genealogy booklet to Sylvia Sine Whittaker)

Alpheus's death record list a father as Thomas Sine, There is no proof of a Thomas Sine or a man with that name that existed in the area close in age to Martha Sine, Alpheus's mother Martha's maiden name was Sine. The error in his death record is could be and is probably because his step father's name was John Thomas Rice.
