General Notes: Husband - Robert Buchanan


He redeemed a farm from the wilderness of its natural state, and brought it into such excellent condition that it yielded bountifully under his management and labors. The farm not only provided sustenance for the family, and all the necessaries and not a few of the luxuries of life, but also produced with so lavish a hand, that he was enabled to lay by a comfortable competency for his old age.
He was a follower of Jefferson and an admirer of Jeffersonian principles. During the War of 1812 he enlisted at Erie, Pennsylvania, as a private. He and his family were Presbyterians.
