General Notes: Husband - John Lucas


He was an early settler of Centre County, Pennsylvania, and a veteran of the War of 1812, having served his country on board of Commodore Perry's fleet, and in that memorable engagement on Lake Erie, September 10, 1813, he was wounded. On his return home he was ever after called "Perry John" to distinguish him from the many other Johns among his kindred.

He was an enterprising, prosperous man, who was quite successful in his farming operations, and acquired a large interest in coal mines, but at his death his heirs were cheated out of most of the property.

Five of his six sons served in the War for the Union.
