General Notes: Husband - Leonard Blaine

---

He and his brothers James, Matthew, and Robert, came with their mother to America in 1779, and after a three months' voyage landed in New York. They first located in East Bethlehem township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, then purchased a small farm in Som-erset township, same county. He, with Robert and Matthew, later moved to Venango County, where Robert and Matthew passed their lives. He resided in Venango County for about eight years, then returned to Washington County. He married and settled on the wild tract of land in Somerset township.
He was a very well educated man, and taught school until the educational system was re-organized. The schoolhouse was of the usual primitive style of the time, furnished in a meager way, and the text-books then used were limited to the "United States Speller" and the "Western Calculator." The terms of tuition were $1.25 per pupil for a term of three months, but many were taught by him without payment, and no charge was made for old pupils. Politically he was a Democrat, and served as clerk of the Washington county commissioners; in religious faith he was a member of the Seceder Church at Pigeon Creek. He died in 1848, followed by his wife in 1850, and both were buried on the home place.
