James Andrew - Preacher Jim & Rachel; James Andrew Preacher Jim;
Rachel Elizabeth Looney McGuire; Rachel Looneys Mt. Horeb Headstone;
Preacher Jim Church Meeting : All these have to do with James
Andrew "Preacher Jim" McGuire (28 Mar 1868 - 14 Jan 1949), son of
William Jasper and Sarah (Caviness) McGuire, and his wife Rachel
(Looney) McGuire (30 Mar 1864 - 16 Aug 1946), daughter of Anthony S.
Looney and Jane (Collins) Looney. Preacher Jim was buried at the Sunrise
Cemetery in Kellyville, OK. Rachel was buried at Mt. Horeb. Listed in
the Camden County records as Minister of the Gospel and it is documented
in Camden County Marriage Records that he performed many marriages in
the early 1900's. He is buried in Oklahoma because he went there to help
his widowed sister, Sarah, take care of her farm. He got sick and died
while there. Because the weather was too bad to allow his body to be
transported back home, his son, Porter, who lived in Kelleyville, had to
bury him there with his uncle Than. This information from Paul Burns.
