General Notes: Husband - George Foulk


He and his wife settled in Trumbull County, Ohio, and about 1842 came to Mercer County, Pennsylvania, and located on a farm in what is now West Salem Township. From there they moved to Salem Township and built a steam saw-mill, which he conducted for a number of years, and then sold to Lewis Lindsay and removed to Iowa; after a short time he returned to Salem and located on the farm of John Pearsoll. This farm he traded to T. B. Roberts for an interest in the old Salem Grist-mill, which he conducted for about five years, and traded with the Hon. J. C. Brown for a farm of 182 acres, which was later owned by his son Richard. After selling this to two of his sons, he followed his trade of carpenter, and finally located in Sugar Grove Township. He was later living in Greenville, was a member of the Greenville Methodist Episcopal Church, and voted the Democratic ticket.
