General Notes: Husband - John McCoy


He was born in in Mercer County, PA, where he was reared to habits of industry and thrift. During early life he engaged in farming and lumbering, and also learned the stonemason's trade, at which he was employed. In 18- Mr. McCoy brought his family to what is now Clarion County, and in 1842 purchased a lot in Clarion borough, and resided there until 1856, then he moved to Beaver township to a tract of 160 acres of timberland, which he converted into a good farm. There he died in 1867, and his wife passed away ten years later. In their new home they had made many warm friends, and their deaths were deeply mourned.
