General Notes: Husband - James Patterson
He was both a merchant and farmer at Patterson's Mills, Cross Creek township, Washington County, Pennsylvania.
His home was always in the township where he was born, and the principal business of his life was farming. But when a young man he was employed in his father's mill, and was at one time engaged in merchandising. In 1837 he moved to the farm, later the home of his son, T. M. Patterson, where he died.
In politics he was a decided Democrat, but not so well known in the party councils as his brothers, Finley, William, and John, who were members of the General Assembly of the State. As a business man, he was one of the most successful in the county, winning wealth and position without sacrificing any of those characteristics which betoken the honest man and pure citizen. For nearly thirty-four years he was a member of the Presbyterian Church of Cross Creek, and as Providence had put him in trust of ample means, he gave a liberal support to all the institutions of the gospel, especially to those schemes of benevolence in which the Presbyterian Church was engaged.
