General Notes: Husband - Samuel Kirk


On his father's farm in Penn township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania, Samuel Kirk grew to manhood, and remained until his marriage. They began their domestic life on one of the Kirk farms, and there reared a family of children. The wife and mother died and a few years later Mr. Kirk broke up housekeeping, and followed lumbering in Cameron County, on the Sinnamahoning for sixteen years. While thus employed, he married again and moved to a house adjoining his camp. On selling out his lumber interests he bought the old family homestead farm of 150 acres in Penn township, and resided thereon until his death.
In his political adherency, Mr. Kirk was a pronounced Republican, and was quite an active and prominent worker in his party. Religiously he belonged to the Friends Church.
