General Notes: Husband - Rev. Dr. Alexander T. McGill

---

After his parents removed to Chartiers township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, he attended school at Plum Run. Later he attended Jefferson College, and graduated. He was elected tutor in the college in February, 1827, and served one year, when he resigned on account of ill health, and went to Milledgeville, Georgia. While there he taught an academy one year. Also while in that state he was appointed chief of surveyors who surveyed the Cherokee lands. He returned to Canonsburg, Pennsylvania, and studied theology under the Rev. Dr. James Ramsey. At the close of his studies he married, and soon after this he settled as pastor over a Seceder Church in Carlisle, and later went to the Presbyterian Church, and became pastor of a congregation in that city. In the year 1842 he was called to a professorship in the theological seminary at Allegheny City, where he remained about ten years, when his health failed, and he retired from active duty for a year, at the end of which time he was called to a professorship in Princeton Theological Seminary.
