He died Feb. 15, 1881 in Missouri. I know that he died in Missouri because that is the reason Grandma and Grandpa McVey returned to WV. Luther had stuck a pitchfork in his foot and he died of blood poisoning. Grandma was so distraught from this occurrence that she insisted upon their returning to WV. They had gone with other family members, namely Aldersons, to Missouri after the Civil War because the Aldersons were not faring as well after the war.".2
