General Notes: Husband - Archibald McCullough

---

He was two years old when his parents set forth from Ireland to establish a new home in America. He was reared to manhood under the strenuous discipline of the pioneer farm, and his early educational advantages were those afforded in the primitive schools of the locality and period. He actively associated with lumbering operations incidental to the reclaiming of the land in his section of the state, and he continued to be identified with that industry for a long term of years. He rafted timber down the rivers, and in this work frequently went as far as the city of Pittsburgh.
In politics he first voted the Whig ticket, later was aligned with the American or Know-Nothing party, and when the Republican party was organized allied himself therewith. He held membership in the Methodist Episcopal Church at Grove Summit, and his wife was a member of the Beechwoods Presbyterian Church.
For a short time did Mr. and Mrs. McCullough sever their allegiance to the old home in Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. They were moved to try pioneer life in Pottawatomie County, Kansas, but farming on the prairies of the Sunflower State did not prove alluring to them, with the result that they returned after three years and repurchased their old homestead farm, which they had sold in the belief that they would be more successful in Kansas.
