General Notes: Husband - David T. Lane


He was reared under the parental roof, and afterward learned the trade of millwright. In 1859 he located in Franklin, PA, and excepting some ten years spent on the river, he lived in that city thereafter. He established the first machine shop in Franklin, in 1859, and with the exception of the period spent in steamboating from 1865 to 1874, he was always engaged in that business. In 1862 and 1863 he built two steamboats on the Allegheny below the Venango mills, which were the only boats of any considerable size ever constructed in Franklin. For the past four years the firm has devoted its attention largely to the manufacture of sucker-rods, which business has recently been consolidated under the name of the Franklin Sucker-Rod Joint Company, Limited, with the plant located in the Third ward.
He had five children with his first wife; three were still living in 1890.
