General Notes: Husband - Gen. Thomas Patterson
He passed his boyhood on the home farm. He was about fifteen years of age when the family removed to Washington County, Pennsylvania. In 1794 he purchased land of his father, upon which he built a grist- and flouring-mill, the mill being situated upon the north branch of Cross Creek. At the same time he bought the property of the widow Mary Patterson (that on which John Boyce later lived), and not long after enlarged his estate by purchases from the Wells tracts.
He built a log house on his land, in a part of which he kept a general store, but after his marriage the stock was removed to his mill, which was then in operation. In this log house he and his wife lived, and here their eleven children-eight sons and three daughters-were born. He was very active in all church affairs, being an elder in one of the Cross Creek churches for many years. He also held all the commissions of militia rank to that of major-general, and during the War of 1812 organized and led a force into Ohio to repel a supposed British invasion.
He was a member of Congress from 1817 to 1825, and of the Electoral College in 1816. He died of apoplexy.
