General Notes: Husband - Rev. Dr. Thomas Creigh

---

After passing through the grammar school connected with Dickinson College, he entered that institution, from which he graduated in 1828. He studied theology under the Rev. George Duffield, D. D., of Carlisle, Pennsylvania, and completed his theological course at the seminary at Princeton. He was licensed to preach by the Presbytery of Carlisle, April 12, 1831. On the 27th of September following he was installed pastor of the Presbyterian church at Mercersburg, Franklin County, and, for almost half a century, that was the field of his ministerial labors. He filled that office acceptably to the people of his charge, and was beloved by the citizens of every denomination.
