ANDREW MCNETT, second son of Eli and Perthena McNett, was born on the homestead in 1805. He remained under the parental roof until 1831, in which year he was married to Marcella Keys. Six children were born of this union: Henry H.; Mary, who married Beatty McDowell; Juliet, who married John C. Reed; Electa, who became the wife of E.W. Sweet; Eli L., and Frances, who married L.D. Jackson. After his marriage Mr. McNett removed to Lycoming county, and settled on a part of his fathers land, also purchasing a small tract from a Mr. Scott. While liberal in his religious views, he was quite prominent in all local charitable movements. He was a Democrat in politics, and though filling some minor offices took no active interest in political affairs.
