In 1874, he was licensed as a preacher of the Gospel in the church of the United Brethern in Christ; and in 1876 was ordained an elder by Bishop David Edwards. He continued in the active work of the ministry for 48 years, all of which was spent in West Virginia Conference, except 3 years which were spent in Ohio and 3 years spent in the Tennessee Conference. He acted as presiding Elder, as the office was then called, for one year in the West Virginia Conference and one year in the Tennessee Conference. He was united in marriage to Louise E. Persinger early in life. To this union was born 2 sons: Robert L. Blagg of Miami, Florida and Walter Blagg who preded his father to the homeland twenty-three years ago.
