General Notes: Husband - Jacob Young McLean


He received his education at the country schools and at the old Mercer Academy, and for several years taught school in the winter seasons. He was married and settled on a small farm in Salem Township, Mercer County, PA, a part of his brother Andrew’s tract, originally purchased from David Leech. After the death of his first wife, he engaged in mercantile business for three or four years. In politics he was a Republican. In 1855 he was elected justice of the peace, and again elected in 1864. In 1868 he was elected county commissioner for three years, and at different intervals was elected several terms as school director of his township. In 1878 he was a candidate at the Republican county convention for the State Legislature, and lacked but a few votes of receiving the nomination. At the next convention he declined to be a candidate.
