General Notes: Husband - Aaron Wright Mumford
His education was acquired in a log cabin school house, where the desks and benches were made of rude slabs of wood, roughly cut to suit the absolute needs. He made his home on the homestead of his father until his marriage, at which time he engaged in mercantile business. He was a man of undoubted business ability and proved his worth in a variety of directions. As a surveyor his services were in demand by the early settlers to determine the boundaries of their farm lands. At the time of the construction of the Atlantic & Great Western Railroad, Mr. Mumford was one of the directors of this and also of the Franklin branch, was the general agent of the company in their purchases of lumber and ties, and had the chief burden of securing the right of way for this company laid upon his shoulders. He supported the Democratic party, and was the incumbent of a number of public offices, among which may be mentioned: County surveyor, justice of the peace and supervisor. He was also a director in the Meadville Savings Bank and in the old Crawford County Bank. He was active in the interests of the United Presbyterian church, and was very liberal-minded in religious as well as all other matters. He donated land for the Methodist Episcopal church and cemetery.
