General Notes: Husband - David R. Carnahan

---

His schooling was limited, and at an early age he became head of a family. Farming was his principal vocation, and he was enterprising and progressive, being the first man in Westmoreland County to own a grain cradle. Later he went to McKeesport, Pennsylvania, where he followed mining for a time, and then returning home to Westmoreland County, bought a farm of 150 acres, which he subsequently laid out into building lots and sold, this being what became Perrysville. In 1846 he became interested in salt works on the Kiskiminetas river, near Saltsburg, and for a time was engaged in making salt, and at the same time conducted a steam gristmill located on the Kiskiminetas. He then moved to what later became Salina station and followed milling, then moved to the old farm at Perrysville, and in 1848 came to Indiana County, where he purchased the James Clark farm of 150 acres in White township. A number of years afterward he made a trade with John Cunningham, giving that place for a tract of 180 acres in Armstrong township, upon which he passed the rest of his days, carrying on general farming. He served at one time as supervisor of roads, held other offices of trust, and was a valued member of the United Presbyterian Church. He died aged ninety-one.
