From ourfamilysaga.com:
History of Ritchie County West Virginia, Minnie Kendall Lowther, (Wheeling News Ltho. Co., Wheeling, W. VA., 1911).
Elias Summers was the first settler on the farm now owned by his son, E. N. Summers. He was born in Monongalia county, and there he was married to Miss Miranda Wilson, sister of Isaac Wilson, of Indian creek, and came to this county in 1838, and settled near Oxford, on the farm that is now owned by the Michael heirs. He removed from here to the Thomas McKinley farm, on White Oak, and from there, from earth rich in the esteem of all who knew him. He was buried in the Cox graveyard, and, in 1901, his wife was laid by his side.Their children: Mrs. Hannah (James) Prather, Mrs. Margaret (J.M.) Cox, Mrs. Jemima (Robert) Mitchell, James K., who lost his life in the Union cause, Mrs. Mary A. (John O.) Kelley, Harrisville; and Thomas, and Della, who died in infancy, have all joined the throng on the other side. The surviving ones are: Mrs. Lucy E. (T.T.) Pritchard, Wyoming; Joseph M. Summers, Ohio; J.T., Kansas; and E. N. Summers, of Pullman.
