General Notes: Husband - Thomas Jefferson McKee


He acquired a very good education for the times, and taught for a while during his young manhood. But the activities of business were more attractive, and he found plenty of opportunity for the exercise of his talents right at home. For many years he carried on a store at Clintonville, Pennsylvania, and his enterprise was an important factor in the growth of the borough, where he built many houses. In 1874 he opened a private bank which he conducted successfully until his death as the Clinton Bank, prospering as steadily in his financial operations as in his other undertakings. He was interested in agriculture and stock dealing, and several of the farms which he bought turned out to be profitable oil lands. In public life his principal services were as justice of the peace and county commissioner, and he was identified with the Democratic Party, but he did not seek political honors, participating in such affairs from a sense of responsibility. Like his father he was prominent in the Presbyterian Church, which he served officially as elder. Though a man of quiet tastes he was fond of company and hospitable, and held in affectionate esteem by a large circle of friends as well as the members of his family and household. [CAB, 598]

He was possibly married once before Miss Anderson. Buried in McKee Cemetery is Elizabeth A. McKee, wife of Thomas J. McKee, deceased Sept 2, 1851, aged 23y, 5m, 15d.
