Children

General Notes: Husband - James L. Borland


He and his brother, Andrew, were born on the home farm in Peters township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and received a common-school education. In early youth they assumed the management of the home place in South Strabane township, which they continued to own, transacting all business together. They never married, and their sister, Margaret A., and her daughter, Mary M. Bell, attended to the household duties. They had an excellent farm, and dealt largely in stock. Both of the brothers were active workers in the Democratic party, of which they were members. The Borland family were among the organizers of the United Presbyterian Church at Peters Creek, and the brothers contributed liberally to the support of the Pigeon Creek U. P. Church, of which they were members.
