General Notes: Husband - John Hervey


He first came to America at the age of eighteen years. As soon as he had accumulated a little capital he returned to Ireland for the rest of the family. He brought with him to the United States his parents, as well as his brothers and his sisters, and they settled at Tarentum, Pennsylvania. He was engaged for a time in a clothing business in Pitts­burgh, but his health failing, he gave up that occupation and obtained work in a saw-mill. Afterwards he was engaged in the oil business in West Virginia, and still later tried farming in Missouri and in Al­legheny County, Pennasylvania, near Turtle Creek. He subsequently resided in West Virginia and in Tarentum. [TCHBC, 1007]
