General Notes: Husband - James Grace


He received his education at the township schools, and has since been engaged in farming. In 1861 he enlisted in Company G, Tenth Pennsylvania Reserves, and served three years; received a severe wound in his breast at the battle of Gaines Mill. He moved onto his own farm in 1868, and held the offices of school direc-tor and assessor of township. For six years he was secretary of the school board. He was a member of Marion Craig Post, G. A. R., and he and family were members of Fairview Methodist Episcopal Church, of which he was steward and Sunday-school superintendent for many years. He voted the Republican ticket, but was for temperance come which way it may. [HMC 1888, 1022]
