General Notes: Husband - Robert Wallace
When thirteen years of age he went into Scott township, Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and took a tract of land, on which he felled the trees and set up a structure of logs for a shelter and a dwelling-place. To that home he brought his bride and there reared his family; late in life, however, he moved back to Union township, and lived on a part of the land which his father had owned, dying at the age of sixty-five. He served as a major in the War of 1812 at Fort Erie. In his religious views he was strongly inclined toward Presbyterianism.
After his marriage he remained in Washington County for two years and then returned to his Slippery Rock property, where he remained till 1827, and then removed to his Mahoning [Lawrence County] property and died there. He was a soldier in the War of 1812, and was promoted to the captaincy of his company. He was a well educated man for his times. He left his Slippery Rock property to be divided among his four daughters and his Mahoning property to be divided between his two sons.
