General Notes: Husband - John Hasson Smiley


Another source states that he was born in 1820.
He was reared and educated at Franklin, PA, having such literary training as the public schools then afforded. In his early life he learned the tailor's trade, but later he was in the coal business for a number of years. He took a live interest in public affairs, joined the Republican Party, and was elected associate judge of the Venango County courts, assuming the duties of that office in 1856. In religion he was a Methodist and a prominent member of the church at Franklin, which he served many years as trustee. [CAB, 484]
