General Notes: Husband - Robert Campbell McIlvain

Somerset Twp, Washington Co, PA

He was reared on the family farm and spent his life here, always retaining it as his home. In early manhood he passed one winter in Illinois, and during the winter of 1904-5 he and wife visited their daughter, Mrs. Dr. Woods, in her home in the state of California. His interests for many years were mainly agricultural and he was a successful farmer and stock raiser.
He and his wife were members of the Pigeon Creek Presbyterian Church, in which he was an elder for many years. At one time Mr. McIlvain was active in township matters and always was interested in the public schools. For twenty-six years he served as a school director in the Union Independent school district and for twenty-five of these was secretary of the school board.
