General Notes: Husband - John C. McComb


He resided for thirty years in his native county, then he moved to Jefferson county, Pennsylvania, and engaged in the tanning business and in harness making, which occupation he pursued for many years. He later resided with a daughter at Marionville, Pennsylvania.

He learned tanning and harness-making in his father's tannery and shop. He married and they lived for a short time after their marriage on his father's farm. He then purchased the farm in Wayne township, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, later owned by H. M. Russel, and built the house occupied by Mr. Russel and family, where he (McComb) and his family resided for several years. He sold this farm and built a house in Dayton, Pennsylvania, in which they resided, and he worked at his trade for a few years. They next removed to Corsica, Jefferson County where they resided for over thirty years. He was elder of the Presbyterian churches at Glade Kun and Corsica. He sold cloth and purchased wool for the Langville woolen mills for many years.
