General Notes: Husband - Archibald McMillin


He grew up in Westmoreland and Beaver counties, Pennsylvania, where he was esteemed a man of more than ordinary attainments and for his life work he was a school instructor and devoted himself to agriculture. About 1820 he came to Beaver County and in a short time purchased a farm in Shenango township, where he remained thirteen years. At that time he became the proprietor of an estate in Slippery Rock township, Lawrence County, which became his permanent residence, being well located near Princeton. In addition to the routine of farming, Mr. McMillin surveyed section after section of land in his vicinity. At the disruption of the Whig party Mr. McMillin naturally fell into the ranks of those marching under Republican banners, and worked effectually to further that party's success. For some years he laid down the law as justice of the peace, and also served as county commissioner of Beaver County before Lawrence County was formed. To him and his wife were born six children, five of whom grew to mature years.
