General Notes: Husband - Larue Francis Boals


The Boals have been established in Center County, Pennsylvania, since the early days, coming thither from the North of Ireland. They are of Scotch-Irish stock. Boalsburg, Center County, is named for them.

He was reared at Boalsburg, whence he migrated to Venango County in 1832, settling that year in Sandy Creek Township. There he spent the rest of his life, spending his life in the development of the farm in Sandy Creek Township. Mr. Boals filled various township offices, and in politics was associated with the Democratic Party. He had been reared a Presbyterian, but he assisted in the support of the Pleasant Grove Methodist Episcopal Church, which was located half a mile from his home. [CAB, 912]

His father served in Washington's regiment during the Revolutionary war.
