General Notes: Husband - John C. Steiner


He was reared in his native township, and educated in the public schools thereof. He worked at the trade of tinner with his father, and at the age of eighteen learned the trade of shoemaker which he followed up to 1885, conducting an establishment of his own in New Staunton, his business being one of the best and most extensive in that locality. In 1879 he was elected justice of the peace, which office he filled until 1894. Two years later he took up his abode in Scottdale, and in 1901 was elected justice of the peace on the Democratic ticket, receiving a majority of two hundred and thirty-six votes. This attested to his popularity, as the borough had a Republican majority of four hundred and fifty votes. He was faithful and effi-cient in the performance of his duties, and had very few reversals as he weighed carefully the evidence in each and every case brought before him. He also served as constable from 1875 to 1879.
He enlisted, in 1863, in the Fifty-fourth Pennsylvania Militia, and August 30, 1864, became a member of Company K, Two Hundred and Eleventh Pennsylvania Volunteer Infantry. He received a gunshot wound in the head at the battle of Petersburg, April 2, 1865, and was removed to a hospital, where he remained until his discharge from the service at the close of the war, June 22, 1865. He was a member of Colonel Ellsworth's Post, No. 209, of Scottdale, of which he served as commander. He was a member of Three Graces Lodge, No. 934, I. O. O. F., at Madison, Pennsylvania, and of A. O. U. K. M., No. 342, of Scottdale.
