General Notes: Husband - Andrew Borland


He was educated in the common schools, and settled on the farm where Adam Borland later lived. It was then in the green wood. He put up a log cabin 20x24 feet, and later built a house on the farm. In 1844-45-46 he worked in a coal bank near Greenville. He was in partnership with Dr. J. C. Andrews, whose office Mr. Borland erected near his own resi­dence. He furnished the means to buy medicine, and was to have half of the income of the practice. Andrews was a man of intemperate habits, and Mr. Borland was a continual loser by the partnership. He studied medicine, and became to some extent a practitioner. He was initiated in the Know-nothing party, but soon after renounced it and became a Democrat, which he continued until his death. The family were members of the United Presbyterian Church. [HMC 1888, 1109]
