General Notes: Husband - Samuel Benjamin Pawling


He was born and reared at the old family home near Selins Grove, Snyder County, Pennsylvania, and received a common-school education. He was married in 1853 and in that year moved to Union County, where he spent his remaining years. He was eminently successful in business, and at his death was the owner of a fine farm, comprising about 120 acres and a considerable personal estate. He was a cheerful giver to all worthy movements and especially to the cause of religion. Early in life he united with the Lutheran Church, in which for many years he held the office of deacon. During that period, in 1877, St. John's church, at White Deer, a handsome and commodious edifice, was built by the congregation, his time and means being given liberally to the enterprise. Political honors had no charms for him as he declined all solicitations to become a candidate for office, considering his duty fulfilled by a proper care for the other interests in which he was concerned.


General Notes: Wife - Sarah Jane Marshall


She died of diphtheria, from which all the children were suffering, two of them following her shortly afterward, and the others being saved with difficulty through the devoted care of the father and physician.
