General Notes: Husband - Joseph Hough


At a very early period he settled on Jacobs Creek, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania, where he located a large tract of land. He erected a mill, which supplied the wants of the settlers for miles around.
He had eleven children, of whom seven were living in 1882.

He was a native of Germany and an early settler on Jacob's creek, Westmoreland County, Pennsylvania. He was one of the sturdy farmers of his day and on his farm of some four hundred acres were located a grist-mill, distillery and carding machine. He afterwards sold his farm in South Huntingdon township and removed to Sewickley. [BHCWC, 596]
