General Notes: Husband - James Keys

---

After his marriage he moved to Trumbull County, Ohio (then a vast wilderness), remaining there but a short time, and then coming to Smith township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he located on a farm in Cherry Valley. In 1822 he represented Washington County in the Legislature, serving five years, and then returned to his farm. He was a brilliant and intellectual man, a leader in every undertaking for the public good. He was a Whig in politics, and in religious connection he and his wife were members of the Seceder Church, in which he was an elder.
