General Notes: Husband - Samuel Lane

---

He came into Franklin County, Pennsylvania, in the last decade of the eighteenth century. He was a millwright by occupation, and erected mills in Quincy Township. Messrs. Daniel and Samuel Hughes, of Hagerstown, Maryland, owned a large tract of land on South Mountain, which was rich in iron ore. Upon this land they determined to erect a furnace, and chose Mr. Lane as their agent to carry their design into execution. Under his superintendence the Mont Alto Iron Works and the Mansion House adjoining were built, in the year 1808. For many years he lived in the house, and superintended the large operations of the furnace. After retiring from the charge of the iron works he settled on his farm in the close vicinity, and spent the residue of his life in conducting his mills, and in agricultural pursuits.
He was a man of much intellectual force, one who kept up with the times, as the times went in his circumscribed sphere, taking a lively interest in politics, as a Federalist, and, subsequently, as a fervent Whig, whose ideal of a man and statesman was Henry Clay. His religious creed was Lutheran.
