General Notes: Husband - Thomas McCollough
He lived on a farm purchased from Robert Craig. After purchasing his farm, he was somewhat distressed as to how he should pay for it, as money in those days was very scarce. He worked, however, for ten years, at bricklaying and masonry during the summer, and in winter at shoe-making, and by perseverance and economy he was able to say in a year or so that he owned his farm absolutely. Mr. McCullough had a great deal of mechanical genius, and found it not a difficult matter to work at various trades. He was a carpenter, as well as bricklayer and mason, and, in 1836, when the public school system came into operation, he built the first schoolhouse in Muddy Creek township, and he was an ardent friend of education. He had a family of fifteen children, eleven of whom were still living in 1883.
