General Notes: Husband - David Maclay


He spent his youth and the first half of his life at Maclay's Mill. He was elected a member of the Pennsylvania Legislature in 1851, and again in 1852. He made no effort to secure either nomination, and on both occasions refrained from voting at the elections because he was a candidate. He was a noted singer in his day, and was a member of the choir of Middle Spring Church from his youth until his removal to Academia, in 1859. He remained at Academia for many years engaged in business with his brother-in-law, Judge Joseph Pomeroy. His old age was spent in retirement at the home of his nephew, Dr. David Maclay, Chambersburg.
