General Notes: Husband - Daniel Knappenberger


He came from Westmoreland county, Pennsylvania, to Clarion County in 1831.

He came to what is now Salem township, then Beaver, and there acquired a considerable amount of land. This he cleared and improved, taking out the first grub ever taken out on the farm, and converting the wild territory into fertile and prosperous land. He erected a log cabin on the place, and there his son Daniel later resided, having inherited the old home-stead. Among his neighbors he came to be a man of influence, and held a number of township offices, being all his life a Democrat. Like his parents he was a member of the Re-formed church.
