General Notes: Husband - David R. Bebout


He attended the district schools of North Strabane township, Washington County, Pennsylvania, and then learned the carpenter's trade, which he followed some years. He was appointed agent of the Chartiers Valley Railroad, at Canonsburg, before it was completed. He and his wife remained in Chartiers township, Washingon County, until 1878, when they bought and moved to a farm in Cecil township. It contained eighty acres of well-improved land, on which he erected good buildings and operated three good oil wells, in addition to the usual farm duties. Politically he voted with the Democratic party, but devoted the greater part of his time to private interests. In religion he and his wife were members of the First Presbyterian Church at Canonsburg.

He was born on the home farm near Canonsburg, where he remained until fifteen years of age, after which he spent five years learning the cabinet-maker's trade with Joseph Huston, of Canonsburg, and two years as a journey-man, and then conducted a cabinet shop and furniture store at Canonsburg for many years, and subsequently became the first station agent of the Pennsylvania Railroad at Canonsburg, resigning that position ten years later on account of ill health. Then he retired to his farm north of Canonsburg, but for some time has been a resident of Canonsburg.
