General Notes: Husband - Judge John Irvin, Jr.

---

Early in life he engaged in mercantile pursuits, and in 1841 en­tered into partnership in Bellefonte with Henry Brockerhoff, conducting perhaps the most ex­tensive business of the time in that part of the State, their business extending over many of the adjoining counties. On the 26th of December, 1846, he retired from the business to engage in the manufacture of iron at “Howard Iron Works,” under the firm name of Irvin, Thomas & Co., which in 1854 was changed to John Ir­vin, Jr., & Co., and continuing until 1865, when he sold the property to Grescom Bright & Co., and moved to Bellefonte, expecting to retire from business, but the great change from an act­ive life induced him to engage with Col. P. B. Wilson in the hardware business, under the name of Irvin & Wilson, and they erected a fine brick block for that purpose, conducting a prosperous business for several years, when he retired to as­sume the management of some large trust estates, in which he continued to the time of his death. He was elected an asso­ciate judge of the county, serving out his full term.
