General Notes: Husband - James Cathcart

---

New Millport, Clearfield Co, PA - a farmer

His life was mainly spent at the old home of his family in Knox township, Clearfield County, Pennsylvania. In January, 1865, he enlisted in the Union army, and took part in several important engagements, including the siege of Petersburg. At the close of hostilities he returned home with health much impaired, and resumed his business of farming and lumbering, in which he was very successful. The care of his aged relatives occupied his attention for many years.
He was active in local affairs and in the Republican party.

His grandmother lived to the advanced age of ninety-eight, breathing her last December 17, 1867.
