General Notes: Husband - David Irwin


He was born at Monongahela, Pennsylvania, and there learned the trade of cooper in his father's shop. Subsequently he became a farmer, but in 1856 he went to California in search of gold, making the trip over the plains and being gone for about five years. He then came back to his farm, but again made the trip, this time around the Horn, and was gone for two years. Selling his mining interests, he returned to Washington County, and purchased a farm at Ginger Hill, but later he went to Allegheny and was there engaged in business for twenty-eight years. He died at that place when sixty-seven years of age.


General Notes: Wife - Nancy Cooper


She died at the age of sixty-three years.
