General Notes: Husband - Andrew Prentice

---

At age of twenty years he began driving a six-horse team over the "Pike" from Uniontown, Pennsylvania, to Baltimore, Maryland. He afterward drove his father's team, running between Cumberland, Maryland, and Wheeling, West Virginia, taking nine days to make the trip. He was one of the best drivers on the "Old Pike," but after fourteen years service the exposure and night driving broke his health. Later he became a grocer in Uniontown and became quite wealthy; at the time of his death he was the oldest "Pike Boy" in Fayette County.
