143Job Meredith, the son of Davis Meredith and Nancy Pritchard, was born in Marion County [perhaps Monongalia Co.], (W) Virginia, near Pennsylvania, and settled at the mouth of the middle fork of the Hughes River about 1839. Not long afterwards, he moved to the mouth of White Oak Creek, across the creek from his cousin Peter Pritchard. He married Mary Ann Amos from Berea (where fellow Seventh Day Baptists lived), and she returned there after he died. They joined the Pine Grove Seventh Day Baptist Church on the South Fork of the Hughes River on Nov. 3, 1844, ten years after its founding. Five of Job's twelve children died in childhood. In 1852, Job relocated to Berea, and died in Salem in 1881, where he had gone just a few weeks before. His strong character and deep faith left its mark on his family, which included daughter Elmina Meredith and his granddaughter Addie Lawson.
