General Notes: Husband - Peter Eberly

---

He was a native of Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, and came to Franklin County in the spring of 1797. He settled on the place later owned by his son, Jacob. The stone residence and barn near it stood on the place when he bought it. He originally bought about 300 acres, later it was known as the "Evergreen farm." Prior to 1822 he had led a retired life for eighteen years in Chambersburg; then he removed to the head of Falling Spring, and purchased the David Andrews mill, which he operated until his death. He reared a family of eight children, of whom four sons survived in 1887. He was a stockholder and director in the Chambersburg Bank for many years, and a member of the Mennonite Church.

He moved from Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, to Chambersburg, Franklin County, became an extensive real estate dealer, and resided upon the location that later became the site of Hoke's store at Chambersburg.
