General Notes: Husband - Jeremiah Haines

---

Rebersburg, Centre Co, PA

He was quite young when his father died, leaving but little means, and his early education was extremely limit­ed, a fact which, in view of his later success in lines requiring accurate knowledge of a kind not commonly possessed, indicates unusual men­tal power. He learned the tanner's trade near Woodward, and with a cash capital of $100 started a tannery in the eastern end of Brush Valley, where he remained until 1855, when he removed to Rebersburg and bought out a tannery owned by Henry Flickinger, and in connection with this business he followed farming on a small scale, as his purchase included sixteen acres of land. He was a shrewd financier, and as a busi­ness man was of more than ordinary ability. At the time of his death he owned 550 acres of land. His extensive business required a knowledge of cer­tain legal points, upon which he posted himself by reading. He was justice of the peace for twenty years, and was looked upon as a man of excellent judgment. His reading covered a wide range, and his library contained many valuable works on theology, in which he was well versed. For many years he held the office of elder and deacon in the Lutheran Church, and he always contributed toward the work of that organiza­tion. In politics he was a Democrat, but he did not seek official honors.
