General Notes: Husband - John Patterson
After the death of his father, the family sold the homestead [in Bucks County, Pennsylvania], and in 1791 John commenced merchandizing in Tuscarora valley, in the vicinity of Academia, there being no store nearer than Carlisle.
He lived in Tuscarora Valley, Juniata County, Pennsylvania, and during the War of the Revolution was in active service for five years. [Given his date of birth, could this actually be the service record of his father?] In politics he was a Federalist and served as Clerk in the Prothonotary's office in Cumberland County, and became a leading promoter and President of the Juniata Bank at Lewistown. He afterwards removed to Mifflin (now Juniata) County, establishing the first store in its limits, was eminently successful in his financial undertaking, and at the time of his death was one of the wealthiest men in the county. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church and a man of strict integrity and upright principle.
He was born in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, and removing to Juniata County in 1790, settled as a merchant at Academia, in Beale township, where he pursued, until his death, a successful business career. He and his business partner were the pioneers in the use of arks for the transportation of merchandise and produce down the North Branch of the Susquehanna River. [HSJV, 739]
General Notes: Wife - Isabella Lyon
After the death of her parents, she and her twin sister, Nancy, were taken by their grandmother Lyon to raise. When she died they were taken by their aunt, Mrs. Fanny Graham. When grown up they married the cousins, the John Pattersons, Esquire and merchant.
