  • Notes 
    • Wysor, Michael Jordan: Born Oct. 24, 1850. Son of B. F. and Harriet Jane Wysor. As a boy he shouldered the responsibility of his family and worked so that the other children, left fatherless by their father's death in the Civil War, might have an education. He was admitted in 1896 when forty-six years old. Served eleven charges in nineteen years; and was Superintendent of Holston Orphanage for seven years. Married Sept. 23, 1880, Miss Willie Edna Boynton, Opelika, Ala. They had three children. He superannuated in 1922. "He was one who learned the secret of growing old gracefully." He died Feb. 14, 1936, at the home of his daughter, Mrs. Eula Wysor McNutt, at Princeton, W. Va. He was buried at Pulaski, Va.
