General Notes: Husband - James T. Taggart

---

He grew to manhood on the home farm in Columbiana County, Ohio, where he secured his education in the public schools. Beginning in October, 1897, he owned and resided on his own farm, having purchased it from Charles Harrah. In days gone by it had been known as the Carson farm, consisting of forty acres situated in North Beaver Township, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, on the Mt. Jackson road, only about three-quarters of a mile west of Mahoningtown. In 1897 he erected the residence, which was an ideal country home.
He and his wife were members of the United Presbyterian Church at New Castle.
