General Notes: Husband - David R. McNary

---

He remained on the home farm until he was twenty-one years of age. He first attended the Oram school in Chartiers Township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, when his teacher was John Curry, who afterwards established Curry Institute at Pittsburgh. After leaving home, Mr. McNary attended this institute conducted by his old preceptor and then took a three-year scientific course at Jefferson College. Later he attended two terms at the State Normal School at Millersville, coming under the direct instruction of Prof. J. P. Wickersham, who not only organized that school, but who became the first state superintendent by executive appointment. Subsequently, Mr. McNary graduated from Duff's Commercial College at Pittsburgh, and for several years was engaged successfully as a school teacher and during 1858-59 was postmaster at Munntown.
During the Civil War, Mr. McNary was employed in the building of government boats at the works at Soho, Pittsburgh, and assisted in the construction of the Maneyunk and the Umque, used on the southern Mississippi River. He also served for eight years as freight agent on the Panhandle Railroad, at Sturgeon, a station then called Willow Grove. For some years later he was devoting the larger part of his time in looking after valuable realty that he owned at McDonald.
He served on the borough council. He was a member of Garfield Lodge, F. & A. M., at McDonald and of Cyrus Chapter at Carnegie. He was a member of the Session of the First Presbyterian Church.
