General Notes: Husband - James S. McNary


He was born on the home place, where he remained until he was thirty years of age. His education was received in the district school of the neighborhood. For a number of years prior to the death of his father the sole management of the homestead farm devolved upon him. He eventually became its owner. To the original one hundred and seventy-nine acres he later added sixty acres.

After marriage he removed to a farm of one hundred and fifty-six acres, situated in South Strabane township, Washington County, and lived there until 1857, adding, while there, sixty-five acres to the original farm. Having that year purchased the homestead farm, he removed to it, and has ever since resided there. The farm residence, a substantial brick, was built by his father in 1828.
