Hugh Gould Nevin Jr.
SLINGERLANDS The Reverend Dr. Hugh Gould Nevin Jr. of Slingerlands died peacefully on Friday, Jan. 22, 2021 one week shy of his 88th birthday after a battle with cancer.
“Hugh was born in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, the son of Hugh Gould Nevin, a successful banker, and Eda McCoy Nevin, a vibrant Wellesley College grad,” his family wrote in a tribute. “Both his father and mother were descendants of the original Scots-Irish settlers of western Pennsylvania. (Hugh had a passionate interest in family genealogy, his history of the Nevin family name becoming one of his two published books.) Pittsburgh also left its mark on Hugh as a life-long Pittsburgh Pirates and Steelers fan!”
