General Notes: Husband - Jacob Keller


He came to Potter township, Centre County, Pennsylvania, in 1806, hailing from Bethel township, Dauphin County. He purchased what was known as the Red Mill property. He was a patriot of the Revolution, having served in Capt. Daniel Oldenbruch's company of militia in 1777. He was an elder in the Reformed Church, and did much to advance the work of that church in Centre County.

He was a soldier in the militia during the Revolutionary war. His discharge, dated Nov. 2, 1777, at Lebanon, Pennsylvania, after two months' service, was still in the possession of the family more than one hundred years later; it was signed by Daniel Oldenbruch, captain.
