General Notes: Husband - Benjamin Lytle


He was born in Beaver County, Pennsylvania, but passed his early life in Gastonville, Washington County. In early youth he was apprenticed to Benjamin Higbee to learn the trade of cooper, commencing business for himself in 1831. He continued to follow his trade until 1851, when he bought a farm, moving on it in 1852, and remained there until 1875. During this interval he purchased two other small farms, the three places containing about 140 acres. In 1875 he built a store-room and dwelling in Gastonville, Washington County, and, taking up his abode in the village, opened a real estate office. He was an active worker in the Democratic party and held many township offices; in religion he was a member of the Baptist Church, in which he served as deacon.
