General Notes: Husband - Andrew Patterson


One Samuel Patterson (his half-brother?) came to Mercer, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, about the year 1800, and engaged in the tannery business near where the North Western Hotel would later stand, and when Andrew came he joined Samuel in this tannery. The first money Andrew Patterson made in Mercer County was $5 for tanning a bear-skin. He afterward engaged in the mercantile business, beginning about the year 1811, in a log building where Meyer's restaurant was later located. His principal trade was with the numerous Indians, exchanging with them gunpowder for lead, which was to him a great wonder as to where these red men obtained this lead. He continued in the mercantile business in Mercer for about fifty-eight years. He settled at marriage in a frame building just west of where the Farmers' and Mechanics' National Bank was later located. He soon after transferred his stock of goods to a portion of his dwelling, and there did business until a few years prior to his death. [HMC 1888, 690]
