The following excerpt is from J.H Beers & Co.: Commemorative Biographical Record of Washington County, Pennsylvania - 1893

Nancy C. Adams, the subject proper of this sketch, was first married October 23, 1849, to James McKeown, whose parents emigrated from the Province of Munster, Ireland, when he was one year old, or in 1824. In the spring of 1850, the young couple located in Harrison county, Ohio, with buoyant spirits and bright prospects for the future; but, alas! how little we know of what the future has in store for us. Only three short months had passed since beginning housekeeping, when on June 29, 1850, Mr. McKeown, in assisting in tearing down a frame barn, received injuries from a fall which caused his death, July 7, 1850.
