General Notes: Husband - Henry H. Redmond


A farmer by occupation, he came to America in 1848, and lived in North Liberty township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, where he purchased a large farm; dying aged eighty-eight years. Sagacious and prudent in his dealings, and exercising excellent judgment in his agricultural labors, he attained a high place in the estimation of his neighbors and fellow-citizens as a prosperous farmer, and was enabled by his financial success to provide liberally for his children. He early espoused the cause of the Democratic party, and ever afterward was found among its stanchest and most serviceable supporters; however, he never filled an office nor posed as a candidate for election, although his popularity might have warranted him in so doing.

He and his wife were born, reared and educated in County Antrim, Ireland, and emigrated to America in 1847, and two years later settled on a farm in Liberty township, Mercer County, Pennsylvania, where they resided until death.
