General Notes: Husband - Felix M. Burkholder

---

He was born in Derry township, Dauphin County, Pennsylvania, but in infancy was brought to Centre county by his parents. Although he never served an apprenticeship to the miller's trade, he learned that business while assisting his father in the operation of his mill, but throughout his early life was principally engaged in agricultural pursuits on the home farm.
While cradling wheat during the harvest of 1861, Mr. Burkholder sprained his left leg in such a way as to necessitate its amputation five years later, and for two or three years during that interval he suffered untold agony and was obliged to use crutches. His early education was somewhat limited, but after the loss of his limb he resolved to further continue his studies in order to support himself by teaching, and attended school at various places, including Penn Hall, Millersville and Potters Mills. Obtaining a certificate, he successfully engaged in teaching some nine years, and became one of the leading educators of Potter township.
About 1873 he commenced the sale of agricultural implements throughout Centre County, and became quite a successful agent. This business gave him a wide acquaintance, and his circle of friends was extensive. His funeral was the largest ever held in Centre Hill.
An earnest Christian, he was a devout member of the Reformed Church, in which he was serving as elder at the time of his death. His political support was given the Republican party.
