General Notes: Husband - Edward W. Doyle


At the age of twenty-two he moved to Concord, Franklin County, Pennsylvania, where he built a store and hotel and engaged in business, and for many years was the leading spirit of the place, being prominently identified with the interests of the township and county. He was a sound Democrat, filled several offices of trust in the township, and served the county as commissioner. In 1824 he moved to the farm later owned by his son, Edward B., known as the "McElhenny farm," and built a mill and distillery on the creek, and also carried on farming operations. (The mill was later owned by Jacob Rhone). He was a sincere and devout Catholic and assisted in the establishment of the church at Doylesburg.
