General Notes: Husband - Rev. John Keely McKallip

---

He was the seventh of eleven children, and was reared in the counties of Westmoreland and Armstrong in Pennsylvania. He graduated from Washington and Jefferson College in 1868, and the Western Theological Seminary, at Allegheny, in 1871. His first charge was at Elizabethtown, Kentucky, where he remained two years. He relieved the congregation of a heavy debt by an Eastern trip in soliciting financial aid. His next settlement was at Uhrichsville, Ohio, where he labored for nearly eight years, building up a large congregation. The church edifice was also entirely remodeled. In 1882 he undertook the pastoral charge of the First church of Bellaire, Ohio, and succeeded in the removal of a large church debt there. In 1887 he accepted a call to the Beaver Presbyterian church, Beaver, Pennsylvania.

His preparatory education was obtained in the schools in Leechburg, Pennsylvania, and he then became a student at the Washington and Jefferson University, from which institution he was graduated in 1870. He next matriculated at the Western Theological School in Allegheny, and in due time was ordained a Presbyterian minister. His first charge was at Elizabethtown, Kentucky, and from there he went in succession to Bellaire, Ohio, seven years; Beaver, Pennsylvania, eight years; Punxsutawney, Pennsylvania, three years; East Brady, Pennsylvania, two years; about this time his health had become so impaired by reason of his devoted and strenuous labors that he was obliged to retire to Parnassus, Pennsylvania, where his death occurred. Rev. McKallip was a fine orator and a successful preacher. After his death his widow returned to the homestead farm in Borough township, Beaver county, Pennsylvania, where her mother and her brother and sister, John and Virginia, were living.
