Notes

His second wife was of a prominent Virginia family, Smyth County, Virginia, being named for her father. Her first husband Colonel Piper was a civil engineer, who was active in the development of Wythe and Grayson Counties. She had no children of her own by either husband and so was able to devote much time and effort to community and church related projects and to the upbringing of the children in the McTeer household, including Piper Catlett, son of the first Mrs. McTeer by her first husband, Rev. Mr. Catlett.

Buried in Speedwell Church.
