General Notes: Husband - Robert T. McGaughey


He removed with his father to Armstrong County, Pennsylvania, in 1834, and from there to Ohio, two or three years afterwards. When nineteen years of age he was apprenticed to a carpenter and served three years, and worked journey work until he was twenty-seven years of age, and made his home with his father.
His first wife died about two years after their marriage. Eight months after her death he removed with his little son to his brother's, where he made his home until his second marriage, which occurred three years after the death of his first wife. His second marriage was to a woman from Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. They had no children. After her death he sold his property in Ohio, and moved to Shelbyville, Kentucky, with about $4,000. There he entered into the manufacturing of hemp ropes. A few years afterwards he sold out again and removed to Louisville, Kentucky, where he engaged in the manufacture of tobacco. While at Shelbyville he was married a third time. By this marriage he had one daughter. After his death his wife and daughter removed to Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
