  Noted events in his life were:

1. Book: 2
Aaron H. married Mary McLean of the publishing family. There is only one child known but I have heard there were others.

Aaron worked with his father in the shipping business for a number of years and when that was sold he invested in a number of other ventures, including the coal and gas business. During this time, a prototype for the Brooklyn Bridge was built between Cincinnati and Covington. Aaron invested in this and his grandson still owned 17% of it when the state bought it.

2. Fact: 1863. He had several patents issued for his invention of a fare box:

Title: Fare box

3. Census in 1870 in Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH. 3 Washington McClean, editor, 51, is with wife Mary L., 42; daughter Mildred, 23; and John R., 20. All were born in Ohio except Mary L. in Kentucky.

In the same home are Alexander Bugher, occupation "none", 39; Mary McLean Bugher, 25; John Bugher, occupation "S. B. Club", 30, and three Irish-born servants: Johanna Burke, 40; Kate McCarter, 30; and Anna McCarty, 24.

Washington's real estate is valued at $35,000 and possessions $145,000, while wife Mary L. has real estate worth $65,000. Son John R. has possessions worth $10,000. Alexander Bugher has real estate worth $5,000 and possessions worth $50,000, and John Bugher has possessions worth $10,000.

[Note: Alexander Bugher above is presumed to be the Aaron Bugher who married Mary McLean, Washington's daughter, since they are living together in Washington's home.].


Aaron married Mary McLean, daughter of Honorable Washington McLean and Mary Lewis Darneal. (Mary McLean was born about 1845 in Cincinnati, Hamilton, OH 4 and was buried in Washington, District of Columbia, DC, USA.)
