      WILLIAM H. AND JAMES G. WALLACE,
  
  [p. 619] brothers, who own over 100 acres of fine land in Mahoning
  Township, near Edenburg, are representative citizens and successful
  farmers. Both brothers were born in Mahoning Township, Lawrence County,
  Pennsylvania, the former in 1860 and the latter in 1865, and they are
  sons of Robert and Maria (Pence) Wallace.
  
  Robert Wallace, the grandfather, came from Scotland to Lawrence County,
  a very early settler, bringing with him his wife, who was a native of
  England. Their son, Robert Wallace, was born in Slippery Rock Township,
  Lawrence County, where he lived until eight years of age, when he
  accompanied his parents to Mahoning Township, and he grew to manhood
  near Edeburg, where he lived until his death, on November 16, 1891. He
  was a well known man, served at one time as constable, but was mainly
  concerned in the development of his farm and promoting the welfare of
  his family. He married Maria Pence, who survived him but a few months,
  dying March 14, 1892. Both were good Christians, worthy members of the
  Methodist Episcopal Church at Edenburg.
  
  William H. and James G. Wallace attended school in Mahoning Township and
  have lived since birth on the home farm, which they are now successfully
  operating. In 1900 William H. Wallace was married to Maud Kelso, of
  Mahoning Township, and they have three children?Mary E., Grace R. and
  Joseph K. In politics, William H. Wallace is a Republican, to which
  party James G. also belongs. The latter has served as judge of elections
  in Mahoning Township.
