General Notes: Husband - Robert McDermott
He was reared on the family homestead near Karns City, Butler County, PA. During the War of 1812 he ran away from home to enter the service, but was rejected on account of his youth. He afterwards became a captain in an early militia company and took a deep interest in military affairs. He was a great hunter and a splendid rifle shot, and many a bear, deer, etc., fell a victim to his unerring aim. He was a member of Fairview United Presbyterian church, an active Democrat, and held various official positions. He was one of the early school teachers of the county, and a thoroughly progressive, enterprising citizen.
