General Notes: Husband - John L. Rankin

---

He was born in Mt. Pleasant town­ship, Washington County, PA, on the farm where the earliest pioneer of the family had settled many years be­fore. He grew to manhood on the ancestral acres, as­sisting in agricultural duties, and receiving a neces­sarily limited country-school education. After his marriage he located on a farm about three miles northwest of Hickory, Washington County, where he resided sixteen years, ex­tensively engaged in sheep raising. In 1866 he moved to Smith township, purchasing a farm one mile south of Burgettstown. Some time later his home was completely destroyed by fire, but, with characteristic pluck and energy, he at once erected a building far superior to the one which had burned. In politics he was a Democrat, and served his party in various capacities in both townships where he resided. He and his wife were members of the Presbyterian Church of Burgetts­town, in which he was an elder.
