General Notes: Husband - Zacharias Peese
He lived at home until twenty years of age, receiving a limited education, and assisted his father in transporting the farm produce to Pittsburgh, making the journey by wagons through miles of unbroken forest.
When twenty-one years of age his father exchanged farms with his uncle, Andrew Pees, securing in the exchange a saw and grist mill, known far and wide as "Pees Mills," of which Zacharias took charge and operated fourteen years.
About 1825 he bought and prepared to move onto a farm in Ohio, but yielding to the request of his father, sold it, and settled on a place in North Strabane township where his son William later lived. He then bought the farm later owned by his son Andrew J.
Mr. Pease was always a Democrat, and filled several township offices. He joined the Presbyterian Church at the age of eighteen years, and was an elder and member of the Pigeon Creek Church for many years.
General Notes: Wife - Jane Jackson
Her family was connected to that of President Andrew Jackson.
