General Notes: Husband - J. C. Schoch

---

He received his education in the public schools of Troutville, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, and in 1870 commenced learning the carpenter's trade with Jacob L. Weber. Having mastered the business he turned his attention to contracting and building, and erected some of the best residences, business blocks and other buildings in his native place. Purchasing a lot in Troutville, he erected a nice home, where he continued to live until 1883, when he sold, and built another residence on Main street, which he subsequently sold. Later his residence was on Main street, but previous to locating there he erected a large house on Walnut street, where he lived for a time. Upon the same street he also built another house, which he sold to John Yoas.
He and his wife were earnest and consistent members of the German Reformed Church, of Troutville.
In politics he was always identified with the Democratic party, and he was called upon to fill a number of official positions of honor and trust, including those of constable of Troutville, judge of election and inspector at different times. In 1894 he was elected justice of the peace.
