General Notes: Husband - H. O. Shelley

---

In 1867, he came to Upper Allen Township, Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, and purchased a farm, on which he moved in 1868, and which he then operated in connection with mining.

He was born in Lancaster, Pennsylvania, but later went to Dauphin County, where he owned a farm. In 1869 he commenced mining iron ore in York County, where he continued until 1878, opening a mine on Dan Landis' farm in 1874, and which he sold in 1875, but in 1883 again leased and operated for some years. An analysis of the ore from this mine, in 1874, gave sixty-two per cent in the furnaces. The analysis made in 1884 showed fifty two per cent of the mixed oxides.
