General Notes: Husband - James M. McBurney


He received his primary education at the schools of the neighborhood, and then (1875) entered the preparatory department of Washington and Jefferson College, graduating in 1881 in the classical course. After leaving college he taught one year as principal, in McKeesport Academy, being associated with Rev. Robert M. Russell, who later had charge of a U. P. Church in Pittsburgh, East End. Returning to Washington, Mr. McBurney commenced the study of law with Hon. H. J. Van Kirk, finishing under John W. Donnan, and was admitted to the bar of Washington County, April 27, 1885, and began the practice of his profession in the borough. He was a member of the U. P. Church beginning in 1876; was a deacon in the same, and a teacher in the Sabbath-school. He was a Republican, but did not allow politics to interfere with his business.
