General Notes: Husband - Joseph Taggart

---

He was of Scotch-Irish descent. With his three brothers, James, William, and Isaac, all of them older than he, he came to America. They were not entirely without means, for their father, and their ancestors far removed, had been well-to-do farmers of the north of Ireland. With their capital the four brothers bought four hundred acres of land near St. Clairsville, Ohio, and proceeded to clear the land of the timber, build homes, and apportion the property amongst them. The land was long owned by their several descendants.
Joseph Taggart died at about fifty-five years of age; his wife was not over forty years old when she passed from life.
