General Notes: Husband - Robert Boyd


He was born on the home farm near West Middletown, Hopewell township, Washington County, Pennsylvania. The Indians were so hostile at that time that the family betook themselves to a more thickly populated district in Beaver County, where they remained some time. After the Indians had left the country, the family returned to Washington County, locating in Hanover township, where Robert grew to manhood.

He first located on a farm in Hanover township, Beaver County, Pennsylvania, and in 1834 moved to the home place in Hanover township, Washington County. He was a successful agriculturist, and in politics was a Democrat.
