William Thaddeus Rencher was born in Alabama in May of 1860. When he was 20 he was ordained as a minister and began his life as a traveling preacher. Like his peer, George W. Ferrer, Rev. Rencher moved a lot. He’s seen in the annual conference minutes of the Georgia, Alabama, and Florida conferences between 1880 and 1930.
October 10, 1931, Rev. Rencher was killed tragically when he was hit by a train. According to his obituary, the 71 year old was waiting to board a train to Jacksonville when he fell from the platform. An approaching train struck him and launched him 15 feet across the platform. He succumbed to his injuries three hours later.
