Dr. Alfred P. Bagby's family tree indicates that James had three sons that were ministers and one son that was the Governor of Alabama. Arthur Pendleton Bagby, was, as a matter of history, the Governor of Alabama.

James Morris Bagby, was definitely a minister, there are numerous records of marriage ceremonies and funeral services that he conducted that can be found in the Virginia State Library and some of those records show on the Internet.

Alexander Bagby is also listed as one of the three ministers in census records:

As for the other preacher, there are two sons from which to choose. Samuel Bagby or William J. Bagby. I have not seen documentation on which of these sons was the other preacher, but I have listed William J. Bagby as the other preacher, per research of Nell Bagby [Simmons] and Linda Bartlam [Reams], both who descend from his line.
