General Notes: Husband - James Lowry Guffey


He was reared in Sewickley township, Westmoreland County, PA. There he married and soon after went to Allegheny County, settling on a farm of fifty-six acres in Forward township, which was owned by his father. This farm was deeded to him and he added to it additional land. He eventually was in comfortable circumstances and possessed a farm of about two hundred and twelve acres. He was a Democrat in politics, and for many years was a ruling elder in the Presbyterian church.
