General Notes: Husband - John Bovard

---

He died in consequence of having partaken of wild parsnips under the impression that they were sweet myrrh. His father had also partaken of the vegetables, but having eaten but a small quantity he recovered from the effects. This happened after the removal of the family to South Huntingdon township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania.
