Malcolm K. McKay was the tenth and last born child of Ira Z. McKay & Delilah E. Marble, born in "Old Branywine," (now extinct), near Hermanville today. As a youngest child, he spent more time with his mother than the other children, going with her to church functions, sometimes staying home due to weather. And he also spent time with his nephew, F. Dalton Jordan, (son of his eldest sister, Florence McKay.)

Malcolm was the shortest of the six brothers. He was "an executive type of look," later in life. He was brilliant and contributed a lot to the community. He worked for the Labor Dept. of the Government for many years and afterwards taught school. He was a highly esteemed and became superintendent of a high school.

"Unlike the rest of his family, he was not a big talker, yet a good listener. If he was interested in a topics at hand he studied it and became well informed. He joked a lot and was fun to be with." Malcolm enjoyed hunting quail and fishing.

He worked as a school principal and also for the government as an inspector.

He and his wife, Lucille Polk, lived in Prentiss, Miss.
