| 9201 | P.B. Molloy was born in Tazwell Co. Va. Feb. 16, 1838, died Nov. 25, 1910. His ancestors were among the early settlers of that state. His father emigrated to Mo. in 1840 and settled in Linn County where the subject of this sketch was reared. His boyhood was present in those hearty pioneer pursuits characteristic of that peculiar period of Missouri's development. He did not have the opportunities offered by the free school system of today and he had reached the age of 20 years before he learned to read. At that age he was seized with an irresistible desire to secure an education, and at odd times and spare moments he soon mastered the necessary elements. Being possessed of a strong analytic mind he turned his attention to law and literature. He ran swiftly in the ways of knowledge, and in 1872 was admitted to the Linn Co. Bar as a practicing attorney. He was married to Mary J. Phillips of Linn Co. Mo. Oct. 28, 1858. Of this union ten children were born, five boys and five girls all of whom survive him, Millie Gooch, Agra, Oklahoma, J.D. Molloy, Chula Mo., W.L. Molloy, Ripley Oklahoma, A.F. Molloy Alpha Mo., Mrs. G.M. Hayes, Agra, Okla., O.S. Molloy, Hitchita, Okla., F. P. Molloy, Reasons, Okla., Mrs. N.M. Stanley, Agra Okla., Mrs. J. Grindstaff, Glencoe, Okla., and Mrs. B.L. Mattocks, Agra, Okla. his wife having died May 21, 1897. He emigrated to Oklahoma in November 1891 and settled 1 1/2 mi. north-west of Agra and has resided in this county since that date. In his prime he was a physical giant, possessed a fearless disposition and in his relation with his fellow man was most amiable, frank and open hearted, sympathizing always with the poor oppressed, or distressed, and much of his time and means have been given freely for the benefit of those whom he deemed worthy of this the highest office of the citizen. As a father his influence was always for the upbuilding of his family, both morally ad intellectually. He was greatly beloved by his children, and his passing leaves a sorrow deep and solemn, but 'tis not a hopeless sorrow, for as we are assured "That in as much as ye did it unto me, " We feel that his life, his aims, and his desires will meet with the commendation of his Creator and that mankind would be infinitely benefitted in the emulation of his many virtues. "It is not death to die To leave this weary road And midst the brotherhood on high to be at home with God It is not death to fling Aside this sinful dust And rise on strong exulting wings to live among the just. He was laid to rest in the Oak Dale Cemetery. Queen City Times, Agra, Oklahoma. Thursday, 9 December 1910, page 10. | Molloy, Powhattan Bolen (I4560)

The Foshers had sold their residence and were planning to move into more commodious quarters and Mr. Fosher was greatly interested in getting things ready for the change and counting much on the pleasure of the new home. He had a deep cold but on Wednesday he took a long walk and on his return home went to his bed at 10 o’clock Thursday morning and his daughter-in-law noticed he was not well and called their family physician who discovered the seriousness of his condition. He passed away the next morning at 10 o’clock.

He spent most of his days in Grantsville township and followed the blacksmith business for many years. He was united in marriage November 17, 1869, to Miss Mary E. Blackburn and to them was born an only son. He was a devout member of the Christian church and politically a stalwart Republican. When this son Elmer moved to Linneus the parents came to Linneus and when Elmer moved to St. Louis they moved to St. Louis about nine years ago.

They are Hobart who is with the Merchants-Laclede National Bank; Wayne is with the Mississippi Valley Trust Company; Lee is with Shaw State Bank and the father is with the Mutual Life Insurance Company of Baltimore, all in St. Louis. Elmer and wife planned to come this morning from the home of Frank E. Cassity east of Purdin and spend some time with old friends here in Linneus but the snow blizzard prevented them carrying out their plans. The Daily News-Bulletin, Brookfield, Missouri.
