General Notes: Husband - Col. Joseph Totton

---

He acquired an education in a little schoolhouse in Dillsburg, York County, Pennsylvania, and then learned shoe-making, and remained in his native town until 1854; then went to Shippensburg, but in 1857 located in Mechanicsburg, where he engaged in the manufacture of boots and shoes until the breaking out of the war of the Rebellion. He raised the Cumberland Guards, which became Company H, Seventh Pennsylvania Reserves, and was elected captain, and subsequently lieutenant-colonel. He remained with the regiment one year, when, being compelled to resign owing to impaired health, he received an honorable discharge. He came home, and a year later opened a livery stable, with feed and sale stables. In 1873 he was elected sheriff of Cumberland County, and resided in Carlisle three years during his term of office, after which time he again resided in Mechanicsburg.
He was a member of Mechanicsburg Lodge, No. 215, I. O. O. F., and of Wildey Encampment, Mechanicsburg, and was the oldest member of the I. O. O. F. in the town, having been connected therewith for over forty years; was a member of the G. A. R., Carlisle Post, No. 201.
