      WILLIAM H. PATTON,
  
  William H. Patton[p. 574] residing on his well improved farm of
  fifty-two acres, situated on the north side of the Harlansburg road, in
  Hickory Township, about one and one-quarter miles from New Castle, was
  born July 14, 1861, in Lawrence County, Pennsylvania, and is a son of
  John H. and Margaretta (Hunter) Patton.
  
  The grandparents, Archibald and Eliza (Stunkard) Patton, came to
  Lawrence County and were among the earliest settlers in Hickory
  Township, where he owned the Locust Grove Stock Farm. William H. Patton
  bought his present farm about 1894. His new two-story frame house and
  commodious and well placed out buildings all indicate thrift and
  comfort. Like his parents, William H. Patton was reared in Hickory
  Township, in which he has passed the greater part of his life, and all
  his interests are centered here. He is a leading citizen in his
  neighborhood and he takes a very active part in the affairs of the
  Neshannock United Presbyterian Church.
  
  On February 27, 1890, Mr. Patton was married to Mary E. Patterson, who
  is a daughter of Walter B. and Esther (Mayne) Patterson, prominent
  residents of this section. Mr. and Mrs. Patton have six children:
  Florence M., Laura E., Wylie E., Nannie J., Margaretta and Thomas Herman.
