General Notes: Husband - John K. Hosterman

Brush Valley, Centre Co, PA

From 1852 until 1886 he rented a farm from his uncle, David Wolfe, which he bought at the latter's death. He lived on the place un­til April, 1893, when he purchased a comfortable home at Wolfs Store, and removed there. Even in his advanced years he could often be seen at work on his farm, the habits of in­dustry, strengthened by more than sixty years of active work at his business, being difficult to lay aside.
He was a Democrat in politics, but while took a keen interest in the success of his party he was not a politician. He served as judge of elections, and for twenty-one years was overseer of the poor. He belonged to the Reformed Church, while his estimable wife was a Lutheran in faith.
