General Notes: Husband - John Wallace

---

He was a carpenter and builder, and later in life he gave his whole attention to farming, Like all boys of his period and location, he did not have many advantages of education, but he had a discriminating and a remarkably retentive memory, and this quality of mind manifested itself in some of his descendants. He was a soldier in the War of 1812, and much of his time was employed in guarding the prisoners taken by Commodore Perry on Lake Erie. About 1842 he removed from Allegheny County, Pennsylvania, and took up his residence in Mahoningtown, in Lawrence County.
