General Notes: Husband - William McGaughey


He was born in Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, where he lived for more than thirty years of the first part of his life. He married and lived on a farm belonging to Mr. Reed in Westmoreland County until the death of his first wife.
He married again and they lived at the Pennsylvania Canal, where he had charge of a lock, from 1830 to 1834. In the latter year they moved to a farm near Rural Village, Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, where they resided for a few years. They next removed to Trumbull County, Ohio, where they resided until 1858, when their last removal took place, and was to Logan County, Ohio. For the remainder of their lives they resided on a farm in the latter county, which had been purchased for them by their son, John. He had made the money to purchase it in the gold mines of Cali-fornia.
