General Notes: Husband - Thomas McGaughey


In 1838 he and his wife moved to a farm on Mahoning creek, in Indiana County, Pennsylvania, where they continued to reside until her death. He then "gave out" his children, broke up housekeeping, and made his home with his brother, John McGaughey, in Indiana County, until his second marriage.
He and his second wife lived in several different places in Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, until 1850, when they migrated to Medina County, Ohio, where they lived till his death. At that time the widow and children were in straightened circumstances and his son, John, of Clearfield, Pennsylvania, assisted them to remove to Clearfield County.
