Descendants of Margaret J. Bailey
By Nyla Creed DePauk
Margaret J. "Maggie" Bailey was the daughter of Sparriel Bailey and Mary Jane (Tyree) Bailey. I have located two different dates of birth for Margaret. The first one is December 1, 1842, in Fayette County, Virginia; and the second one is April 30, 1844, in Fayette County. Margaret died December 10, 1912, in Raleigh County, West Virginia. She is buried in the Sparriel Bailey Cemetery, on Willowood Road, Beckley, Raleigh County. No marker for her grave has been located. Two graves are marked by native stones and possibly two unmarked graves are in the cemetery. One of these graves may be Margaret's.
Margaret's obituary:
Raleigh Herald Newspaper, Beckley, West Virginia
December 20, 1912
Mrs. Margaret Bailey, a very estimable, highly respected and aged lady, died at the home of her son, Walter Bailey of Prosperity on last Friday evening at the ripe old age of 70 years and 12 days.
Mrs. Bailey had been a victim of cancer for a number of years and her death was no surprise to those who knew her. She is survived by four brothers all of whom are among the best citizens of this and adjoining counties - Squires James and Amos of Prosperity, George Bailey of Beckley, and McDowell Bailey of Daniels and one son, Walter of Prosperity. Her husband preceded her to the grave several years since. Remains laid to rest in Sparriel Bailey Cemetery.
