General Notes: Husband - Samuel L. Riddle


He accompanied his parents to Butler County, Pennsylvania, and worked in the oil fields and also at farming. In 1864 he enlisted for service in the Civil War, entering Company B, Fiftieth Regiment, Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry, under Capt. Frank H. Barnhardt, and was mustered out of the army June 12, 1865. In the interim he had seen hard service and participated in the battles of Hatcher's Run, Fort Steadman and Petersburg. He was never wounded or taken prisoner and after the close of the war returned home and resumed peaceful pursuits. He was a member of the Grand Army of the Republic. On March 24, 1876, Mr. Riddle came to Lawrence County and settled on a farm, making all the improvements on the place.
