General Notes: Husband - William N. McClain
He passed the days of his boyhood on his father's farm, and received, in connection with a good grammar-school education, practical home training, which was the foundation of his subsequent successful business career. He became one of the most progressive farmers of his section, and though residing in Washington, Pennsylvania, supervised the work of his tenants, doing a large share of the work himself. He several times held township office, faithfully discharging the duties thereof. His farm of nearly 200 acres was rich and productive and yielded him a large annual income.
