General Notes: Husband - Robert Patterson


When twenty years of age he came with his parents to Washington County, Pennsylvania. He enlisted in the War of 1812, serving a short time. After marriage he located on his father's farm near Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, and he followed the profession of surveyor. He became a very successful business man, settling up various estates and dealing extensively in wool. In political opinion he was originally a Whig, then a Republican, and served as justice of the peace for many years. In religious faith he and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church at Florence, at which place he was elected an elder in 1832, and served in that capacity until the organization of a Presbyterian Church at Burgettstown, in 1849, to which place he transferred his membership; he was made an elder there also, and served in that office until his death.


General Notes: Wife - Mary Linn


She died of consumption.
She was first buried at Florence, but her remains were afterward interred in the cemetery at Burgettstown, Pennsylvania.
