General Notes: Husband - W. E. McCandlass


He was a carpenter by trade.
Upon the death of his wife's mother (sic), he and his brother-in-law, James P., undertook storekeeping, which proved a losing venture. In 1838 they removed to Macomb, McDonough County, Illinois, where he became a very successful builder.
