General Notes: Husband - Samuel Jordan


He and his wife were natives of Bedford County, Pennsyvania. He moved, with his family, in 1840, from Bedford to Somerset County, where he remained for eight years and was engaged in farming. In 1848 he removed to Westmoreland County and settled in Mt. Pleasant township, where he resided until his death.

He was a carpenter by trade, but during the greater part of his active career was engaged in the hotel business.
