General Notes: Husband - John McClain
He was reared in Franklin Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where for many years he engaged in farming. About 1869 he came to Washington, and for a period of twenty years operated the Washington Woolen Mills, to which on January 1, 1871, he added a broom factory, which he carried on in connection with the mills. He subsequently disposed of the woolen mills, and on account of his health, spent a part of his time on the farm each year, but he continued the manufacturing of brooms. Mr. McClain was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and fraternally was a Knight Templar Mason.
