General Notes: Husband - Edmund R. Smith


By trade he became a painter, at which he worked in his early manhood. After marriage he and his wife lived in South Strabane township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, until 1859, when they moved into the borough of Washington, he having been appointed deputy sheriff under Col. Norton McGiffin, for a term of three years, which was succeeded by another term under James M. Byers. In 1864 he was elected sheriff, and served until 1867-completing a total of nine years' public service. Some time afterward he moved to Zollarsville, in the same county, where for three years he kept store, and then, in 1870, returned to Washington, after which time he was engaged in the lightning-rod business.
He was a member of the F. & A. M.; politically he was a Republican. He was a cripple all his life.
