W. McGarvey answered the Gospel call and was baptized into Christ. Upon his conversion, he dedicated his life to ministry and the study of the greatest book in the world. He was invited to preach in Dover, Missouri in January 1853, and that March he married Ottie F. Hix, with whom he had eight children.\u003cbr\u003e In Spring of 1862, during the heart of the Civil War, he accepted the position to work with the church in Lexington, Kentucky.
