General Notes: Husband - John S. Russell


After his first marriage he settled on a farm one mile west of Bulger, Smith township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where his life was passed successfully in agricultural pursuits. Year by year his possessions increased, until he became one of the most extensive wool growers and largest landholders of the township, at the time of his death owning nearly 600 acres of valuable and productive real estate. In politics he was a Democrat, and in religion a member of the Raccoon Presbyterian Church, which he served as an elder.
