General Notes: Husband - James S. Forsyth(e)

---

He was reared to farm life in his native county, his boyhood winter months being passed in the common schools of the district, and for a time in an academy, after which he took a commercial course at the Iron City Business College, Pittsburgh. He then returned home, and remained on the farm until the death of his parents. In 1879 he embarked in mercantile business at Redstone, Fayette County, Pennsylvania, which he carried on three years; then, in 1882, purchased a farm in Amwell township, Washington County, and in connection with general farming dealt considerably in live stock, making a specialty of Short-horn cattle. In 1890 he moved into the borough of Washington, where he had a home, situated about one mile from the court-house.
Politically, he was a Republican, and held various township offices. He was a Presbyterian in church connection.
