General Notes: Husband - William Croghan, Jr.

---

A resident of Kentucky, he came to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, on a visit, became acquainted with the O'Hara family, and ultimately married Mary. He was admitted as a member of the Allegheny County bar on the 20th of May, 1835, and eventually died at his residence, "Picnic," near Pittsburgh.

He was a remarkably handsome man, tall and well built, with remarkably
well-proportioned features, and an exceedingly keen and intelligent eye. He was a very Chesterfield in courtly manners, and a true gentleman in heart.
He resided at his beautiful country seat, "Picnic," which commands a view of the three historic rivers, Monongahela, Allegheny and Ohio, and a far-off glimpse of the hazy Chestnut ridge of Pennsylvania. He died at his residence, Picnic, near Pittsburgh, loved and lamented by all who knew him.

She died leaving a son and a daughter. The son died soon after her, so that the daughter fell heir, as the next of kin to her dead brother, to the whole of her mother's estate.
