General Notes: Husband - Gillis M. Doty


He was born in Derry township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, there grew to manhood and there followed farming until his marriage. At that time he settled in Blacklick township, Indiana County, on a farm of 200 acres on which stood a log cabin. He worked hard to clear the land, and later, as prosperity enabled him, built a fine stone house and made other improvements on the place. He continued to engage in stock raising and general farming, and lived to a ripe old age, dying on the farm.
