General Notes: Husband - Jacob A. Wallace


At the time of the partition of his father's estate his elder brother John declined to take the farm eight miles from Pittsburgh, on the Brownsville road, at the appraisement, and Jacob took it. On this farm he lived and died, and was buried in a private burying-ground. He was a good farmer, an excellent millwright, and took building contracts, among which was the Lebanon Church. In the prime of his manhood he was thrown from his horse, and ever afterward he was an invalid.
