General Notes: Husband - William McDonald


He was a farmer by occupation.

In 1800, the year in which they attained their majority, he and his twin brother Andrew settled on a tract of land [in Beaver County, Pennsylvania?] extending along the Ohio river for four miles, a site part of which was later occupied by Woodlawn.

He was one of the pioneers at Logstown, Pennsylvania. A century ago [1889] he preached as a local Presbyterian minister near Sewickley valley and at Logstown, whisky and corn chiefly constituting his salary.
