General Notes: Husband - Daniel Brobst


He passed his life at the family homestead, its cultivation occupying much of his time. In religious faith he was a Lutheran, and when the "New Church" was formed he identified himself with that branch. He was prominent in local affairs and took an interest in military matters, serving for some time in the State militia. In 1838 he was elected second lieutenant of the Union Greene, attached to the Union Independent Battalion of Volunteers of the Militia of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in the First Brigade of the Eighth Division, composed of the Militia of Northumberland, Union, Columbia, Luzerne, Susquehanna and Wayne counties. On his election being duly certified, Lieut. Brobst was commissioned, and served with credit until his retirement, in 1842.
