General Notes: Husband - Samuel Wallace


He was born at a place in Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, then known as Irishtown, and was reared on the farm of his father in Baldwin Township, in the same county, and learned the trade of a wheelwright. In 1844 he removed with his family from Baldwin Township to the borough of Birmingham, (later the 28th ward of Pittsburg) and there carried on his business of building carriages, wagons, etc., for the remainder of his life. In full possession of his mental vigor and business activity until his last illness, he passed away.
He and his wife were both active members of the Presbyterian Church of Concord.
