General Notes: Husband - Ammi B. Heard


He was reared in Crawford County, Pennsylvania, and spent his early days on a farm. He received a common school education. Since his boyhood days he always showed an intuitive knowledge of horses, and early in life engaged in the buying and selling and speculating in horses. He removed to Erie in 1878, and engaged in the livery business, which he followed four years, at the same time keeping up his business in the traffic of horses. He took some of the finest blooded horses in the country to the large cities, and sold them for handsome prices. He sold a great many fine horses in the city of New York, and made that city the chief market for his sales. During later years he was interested in oil production in Forest and Elk counties, Pennsylvania, where he met with good success.
He was a prominent Republican, and was candidate of that party for sheriff of Crawford County, in 1877.
He was a member of the K. of H.
