General Notes: Husband - Hon. William Patterson



Cross Creek Twp, Washington Co, PA

At an early age he was entrusted with the care of the farm and mills, during his father's absence on political business. In 1812 his father established a fulling mill, of which William took charge as soon as he was competent. He was a prominent officer in the militia, and organized and commanded the Union Volunteer Battalion; was also major on the staff of the brigadier-general of militia. In 1828 he was elected to the State Legislature, serving four consecutive terms, and during the last term was Speaker of the House. He took a very active interest in all educational matters, secured the erection of an elegant schoolhouse near his home, contributing liberally to the expenses, and serving most efficiently as director. While in the Legislature he obtained $8,000 from the State to erect a new building for Jefferson College. In 1844 he became a member of the Electoral College, and in 1859, retiring from a brilliant public career, he passed his last days in quiet.
