Preston Randolph was born November 19, 1836, on Greenbrier Run, near Salem, W. Va., and died at his late home in in Salem, May 2, 1919. Most of his long and useful life was spent in this community, and his active years were devoted to the interests of education in Harrison, Doddridge and Ritchie counties. He was a lifelong member of the Salem Seventh Day Baptist Church. He was married in April, 1868, to Miss Harriet Meredith. To this union four children were born. One son died in infancy. Another son, Clyde F., died in 1904, when just entering upon his duties as an associate professor in the West Virginia University. He is survived by a son, Ray, of Salem, and a daughter, Mrs. Joseph Rosier, the wife of President Rosier of the Fairmont Normal School. He is also survived by his wife who was Miss Jennie Davis, and to whom he was married in 1910, his first wife having died the previous year. His work as a teacher was not confined to the select and public schools, but he was an early leader in Bible school work. He organized several Bible schools, conducted institutes and was for years superintendent of the Salem Seventh Day Baptist Sabbath School. He was interested in all the work of the church, and his Christian faith supported him to the end. The simple funeral services were held at the old home, conducted by his pastor who was assisted by President C. B. Clark. The frail body which was never able able to accomplish a great deal where strength and weight were needed, but which housed for more than eighty-two years a spirit progressive and helpful, was laid to rest in the I. O. O. F. Cemetery.
