General Notes: Husband - Robert McAnlis


One source states that he died young in Ireland. [BOBLC, 362]

He was born in Ireland, and, being a young boy at the time his parents came to America, was practically reared in the woods of Lawrence County, Pennsylvania. He inherited 100 acres of the home place of his father, and purchased twenty-five acres of a sister. His brother also purchased twenty-five acres each of the sisters, and, as the other three had first choice, that which fell to Robert was the poorest, apparently, and considered of little value. This estimate, however, was a false one, as two 3-foot veins of coal were struck, from which many tons were mined. The laborious work of clearing his land, rolling logs, and the hardships of pioneer existence were too much for his constitution and resulted in his death in middle life.


General Notes: Wife - Jane Patterson


She was three years of age when her parents came to America, about one year later than the McAnlis family. These families had been neighbors and friends in the old country and the same relationship existed in the United States.
