General Notes: Husband - Albert Ackley Carrier
In the autumn of 1829, when less than one year old, he came with his parents to Jefferson County, Pennsylvania. His father had resided in Pennsylvania some years prior to his marriage.
His early life was spent in Clover township, Jefferson County, and he resided there most of his life, devoting himself closely to farming and lumbering, taking but little interest in politics.
He resided on the same farm for about thirty years, and in that time made it one of the model farms in the county. He introduced the very best labor saving farm machinery, and among other enterprises engaged in the creamery business, having a creamery with Cooley creamers, for twenty cows, the churning being done by steam power. He had the reputation of furnishing some of the best butter in the county, which always commanded the highest market prices.
Mr. Carrier gave generous assistance to the Webster Literary Society to enable them to erect their pleasant and commodious lyceum building in 1881. He also did much towards the organization of the "Twin Sister" brass band, called for his twin daughters, Agnes and Alice, girls at that time of fifteen years, who for some time were the leaders of this, one of the best bands in the county, they both being accomplished cornet players.
