General Notes: Husband - Samuel H. Rutherford


He attended the public schools of his native township, and afterwards took a course of three years in the Academy. He was then engaged with his father in farming until he was twenty-seven years of age. In 1870 he took up the dairy and farming business on his own account. In addition to his farm and dairy operations, he became, in 1891, the agent of the Rutherford Ice Company, with an office on Court avenue, Harrisburg. Mr. Rutherford's political opinions were Republican.
He resided on the farm bought by his ancestor, Thomas Rutherford, in 1755, shortly after his emigration from Ireland, which was handed down in the family from one generation to another.
