General Notes: Husband - Henry C. Critchlow


He attended school in his boyhood, near Hay's mill, and at that early age showed a remarkable talent for mechanical work. He never served any apprenticeship as carpenter, millwright, or stonemason, but the substantial buildings on his farm, which were of his own construction, proved that he understood these trades very thoroughly. When he was eighteen years old he followed the example of his two brothers and enlisted for service in the Civil War. He entered Company D, One Hundred Thirty-ninth Regiment, with which he went to Virginia. Enlisting in November, 1862, he served for almost three years, during this long period facing danger and death on a hundred battle fields. He was with his regiment during the entire period except when he was confined in hospitals, owing to his having been severely wounded, first at Chancellorsville and afterwards at the fall of Petersburg. Mr. Critchlow later belonged to Reed Post, Grand Army of the Republic, at Butler. After his return from the war, Mr. Critchlow lived in Allegheny County for several years and in 1873 came to Middlesex Township, Butler County, and thence, in 1875, to Penn Township, where he bought a farm.

Politically, Mr. Critchlow was a Democrat, but aside from exercising the elective franchise, took no active part in public affairs.

He and his wife had a family of sixteen children, thirteen of whom still survived in 1909.
