General Notes: Husband - Dr. Louis Marchand


He read medicine with his father and graduated from the University of Pennsylvania in 1810. He practiced for a short time at his home in Sewickley, later removing to a farm on the Monongahela river, opposite Pike Run, in Fayette County, Pennsylvania. Here he farmed and practiced his profession until 1822, when, upon the death of his brother, Dr. Daniel Marchand, of Uniontown, he removed there and assumed the practice of his deceased brother. In 1849 he returned to his farm on the Monongahela where he presently erected a three-story brick addition to his residence, which he used for some time as a hospital. He was a most skillful surgeon and physician. He and his wife are buried on his home farm in Fayette County.

Dr. Marchand possessed as a family heritage the receipt for the cure of hydrophobia, from which many wonderful cures were reported. He was an ardent Whig and Republican in politics, and in religious faith was a leading member of the Cumberland Presbyterian Church.
