General Notes: Husband - Samuel McCutchen

---

He was born in Fallowfield township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he received a limited education at the subscription schools of the vicinity. In boyhood he learned the trade of a shoemaker, which he successfully followed during the greater part of his life, in connection with farming pursuits. He commenced life poor, for his father's estate, after being divided among many heirs, rendered him but little assistance. By dint of hard work, however, he was enabled to earn and save sufficient to buy a small farm, and being successful in his undertakings, particularly as a financier, and by reason of various speculations, in buying and trading land, turning out profitably, he, in the course of time, accumulated a considerable share of this world's goods.
