General Notes: Husband - William Davis
He attended in his boyhood the rate schools of the neighborhood of his birthplace, and early in life commenced working on his father's farm in North Strabane township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, where he remained until 1847. In that year, by careful husbandry he was enabled to buy a farm for his own account in South Strabane township, and after that time he devoted himself to agriculture and the growing of Saxony wool, in both of which industries he met with success, his flock of sheep numbering often 1,000 head. He eventually owned about 500 acres of the best land in the county.
He held a number of important township offices, and was for nine years a member of the poor board of the county. For several years he was director of the First National Bank of Washington, in which he was a large stockholder. He long was a member of the Presbyterian Church of Pigeon Creek, in which for many years he was an elder. He was later an elder in the First Presbyterian Church of Washington, Pennsylvania.
