Note* | William Finas Roberts was born in Kosciusko, Mississippi on November 10, 1864, the son of William Calvin and Sarah Frances Furr Roberts., He received his theological education at the University of Chicago Divinity School and the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He was married twice. His first wife, Mary Elinor Clugston, died in 1903. In 1911, he married Dr. Clara Maud Wodetzky. He served as pastor of the First Baptist Church of Grenada from 1903 to 1906. He taught school in Mississippi and was president of Buchanan College, Indiana. Other pastorates were Letts, Indiana, Hunnington, Indiana and Slater, Missouri. He was Baptsit State Evangelist for the State of Washington. He returned to pastoral work at Gooding, Idaho and later served as interim and problem church pastor for many years for the Association of Washington and Northern Idaho. In 1903, William became the pastor of the First Baptist Church of Grenada and seved until 1906. Soon after his call to the pastorate, a disturbance within the church brought the expulsion of 48 members as indicated by the 1904 Report, leaving 160 members. No church minutes are available to explain the reason for the expulsions. Whatever the trouble, it seemed to have been straightened out during the next few years. The membership started increasing again and, in the 1906 Report, 53 new members were added, raising the total membership to 207. William was author of 'DIXIE DARKIES', a collection of tales of his Southern, colored friends. He preached his last sermon on August 22, 1948 and died just three weeks later on September 11, 1948. After a mercifully short illness of two months, he died of cancer. He lacked two months of being 84 years. He numbered his friends in the thousands, a wonderful life!
