General Notes: Husband - Solomon Shaner

---

New Kingstown, Cumberland Co, PA

He was reared on the home farm and received his education in the common schools and Leechburg academy. In 1877 he engaged in the general mercantile business at Shearers Crossroads, where he soon built up a good trade which he held for twelve years and a half. In September, 1889, he concluded to leave his flourishing mercantile business and engage in farming. His farm of seventy-three acres of fine farming, well watered and highly cultivated land, adjoined Shearers Crossroads. He also owned some valuable property at Hillsville. He was a member of Leechburg Evangelical Lutheran church and a stanch republican; he served his township in 1882 as auditor.
