General Notes: Husband - John Kane


He was just seven years of age when his father died, and the following year the family removed to Allegheny County, Pennsylvania. From his tenth to his fourteenth year he was bound out to a Mr. Hood to learn the tanner's trade. He then became manager of the farm of John White, while his mother assisted in the management of the house at the same place, which was near Clinton, Pennsylvania, and there she met Mr. McCartney, whom she later married. In February, 1841, they removed to Darlington township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, in order to take charge there of a tract of land owned by Squire White, and they were very successful in this undertaking. During one period they kept, raised and fed one thousand head of sheep for several years. All the male members of the Kane family were more than ordinarily large and strong men. Mr. Kane was a very uncompromising Democrat in politics, and served as a school director. He succeeded in amassing a sufficient capital to enable him to buy two hundred acres of land, this being a part of the White farm, and on this he lived until his death.
