General Notes: Husband - Berton Eugene Sloan


He attended school at Six Points and in Cherry Valley and then gave his father assistance on the home farm until his marriage, after which he rented the farm for four years and then purchased his own farm. A test was made and gas was discovered on his farm, but no oil, and there was an open coal bank as well. Mr. Sloan kept up his or­chard and otherwise developed his farm. Farm buildings were standing when he purchased but he added others, a wagon shed and a residence. When not devoting his attention to his land, Mr. Sloan engaged in teaming through the neighboring oil fields. Mr. and Mrs. Sloan were members of the Scrub Grass Presbyterian Church, in Venango County. In politics he was a Republican. [HBC 1909, 1391]
