General Notes: Husband - William McCray, Jr.

He was a lifelong member of the old U. P. Church at Plumer, Venango County, PA, and a Democrat in politics. An early settler in Cornplanter Township, he resided first on the Lamb farm near Plumer, thence removing to the famous McCray tract near Petroleum Center which later became renowned for its rich oil resources. He spent his days there engaged in farming, giving the better part of his life to its improvement and development. [CAB, 468]
