General Notes: Husband - Jeremiah Rankin

---

He was born in the stone mansion erected before 1787, and which one hundred years later was one of the most imposing residences in the valley. He married, and they began their domestic life on the paternal homestead, which by his father had been converted from forests to quite a nice farm, but which he himself much improved.
