General Notes: Husband - John Gamble

---

He was born in Fayette County, Pennsylvania, and for many years was a prominent school teacher in his section. He moved to Westmoreland County, and conducted a general store and a hotel at West Newton until 1817, when he proceeded to Allegheny County and purchased a large tract of land in Elizabeth township. He was a member of the Round Hill Presbyterian Church, of which he was an elder many years. Politically, his sympathies were with the Democratic party, and for a long time he served as a justice of the peace in Allegheny County. He was gifted naturally with a mind clear on legal points-in law and equity-and was looked up to as the general adviser of the community.
