General Notes: Husband - John Laird

---

He was reared to farm life, and what education he succeeded in securing was obtained at the subscription schools, but he was chiefly self-educated, having devoted much of his spare time to reading at home.
He remained on the old home farm in Donegal township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, until 1872, in which year he moved to Claysville, where he then resided. He was a member of the Presbyterian Church, and in politics was a lifelong solid Democrat.
