General Notes: Husband - William M. Findley


He learned the carpenter trade with his father, and afterwards became a mill-wright and a surveyor. He married and they lived at Ewing's mill, in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania, for several years. They later removed to the farm in Armstrong County. After the death of his father, they removed to his father's farm, where they lived for a short time. He and W. W. Marshall were the executors of his father's will. He built the ladies' boarding house at the Glade Run Academy, which he sold much below cost to the congregation of the Glade Run Church. He lived in this boarding house for a few years, and was the last postmaster of the Glade Run post-office. He built McGaughey's saw mill in 1857. He next removed to Indiana County, where he purchased property on which was a flouring mill, but soon afterwards he died.
Several years after his death, most of the family moved to Kansas.
