General Notes: Husband - Jacob Braden

---

He lived and died on the farm in Forest County, Pennslvania, which he cut out of the wilderness. During the early part of his residence there he engaged in lumbering, until he had his land cleared of the heavy timber. He was a Methodist, and a noted church worker in his time, laboring zealously to do his part in bringing the gospel to the inhabitants of his section.
Of the seven children, six survived in 1917: William Wesley is the only one in Jefferson county; two live in Forest county, one in Clarion county, and two in Pittsburgh.
