General Notes: Husband - George R. Hugus


He was born on his father's farm in Unity township, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, and was educated at the Sewickley Academy. At the age of eighteen he left school and engaged in farming which he made the business of his life.

He was reared on a farm where he resided much of his life, and received his education in common and select schools. He devoted his time largely to farming and stock-raising. His attractive home farm was in the southern part of the township. It contained one hundred and forty acres of choice land which was kept in the highest state of cultivation. He also owned two other good farms which were well-improved and carefully cultivated. He was a member and was for many years an elder of the Reformed church. He was a life-long democrat, served for ten years as school director and was always active in the councils of his party of which he was a leading exponent in Unity township.
