General Notes: Husband - James Lockhart


He was born in Ireland, of Scotch ancestry, and when a young man came to America, landing in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. From there he proceeded to Montgomery County, where he was married, and in 1840 he moved over land to Meadville, Crawford County, making that place his home throughout the remainder of his life. He was a well-known contractor on public works, and he and his brother David H. built the French Creek feeder or canal from Meadville to Conneaut Lake, to provide a feeder for the Erie and Pittsburg canal. He engaged in Government contracting for many years, and also built a section of the Erie railroad in the vicinity of Elmira, New York, in 1849 and 1850.
