General Notes: Husband - George Horter Bucher


He was educated in the Latin schools of the borough and in the Harrisburg academy. In early life he was engaged in merchandising. In 1836, he removed to Cumberland County, Pennsylvania, locating near Hogestown. He soon became one of the men of mark of the valley, and quite prominent in public affairs. He represented Cumberland County in the State Senate during the years 1863, '64, and '65. After that period he led a retired life at Mechanicsburg, honored and respected by his fellow-citizens; and died there, of paralysis, on Thanksgiving Day, November, 27, 1884, in his eighty-eighth year.
