General Notes: Husband - Dr. David Maclay, M.D.
He was educated in the public schools, at the Chambersburg Academy, and at the Tuscarora Academy, at Academia, Pennsylvania. In 1871 he began the study of medicine with his father, and was graduated M. D., at the Medical Department of the University of Pennsylvania, in 1875. Immediately upon receiving his degree he began the practice of his profession at Green Village, Franklin County, where he remained until 1891, when he removed to Chambersburg. Upon his removal he formed a partnership with Dr. Robert W. Ramsey. Dr. Maclay was a member of the Franklin County Medical Society and also the State and National Societies. In politics he was always an active Republican worker. He was County Treasurer of Franklin County, 1897-1900, and was chairman of the Franklin County Republican Committee, 1899-1902. He was chosen one of the Representatives of the county in the Pennsylvania Legislature in 1902, being the third David Maclay in descent from John Maclay to fill that office. He served in 1903 and 1904, and in 1903 he secured the passage of the bill appropriating $4,000 for the erection of a monument in the Middle Spring graveyard in Cumberland County, in honor of the soldiers of the French and Indian War, the War of the Revolution, the War of 1812, and the Mexican war, that were buried therein. He was elected a delegate from the 18th Congressional District, to the Republican National Convention, held at Chicago in 1904. On Feb. 10, 1905, he was appointed postmaster at Chambersburg by President Roosevelt. He was a member of the Falling Spring Presbyterian Church. He inherited his father's taste for the preservation of local history, and was the custodian of the valuable material accumulated by Dr. Charles T. Maclay.
