General Notes: Husband - Joseph Harbison

---

He came with his parents to Young township, Indiana County, Pennsylvania, and became one of the leading agriculturists of his day in that vicinity. He acquired a tract of five hundred acres. His first dwelling was constructed of logs, and he later erected a frame house and barn, also making many other improvements on his property, where he spent his life. The frame residence which he built there in the latter eighteen-forties was still standing in 1913 and was in an excellent state of preservation. Mr. Harbison died on this place and was buried in West Lebanon cemetery. He was a strong antislavery man, a Whig and Republican in political sentiment, and a prominent member of the Presbyterian Church, serving as elder of the church at West Lebanon, which he helped to organize; he was originally a member of the church at Eldersridge.
