General Notes: Husband - Samuel Davidson


After getting such education as the schools of that day afforded he went to Carlisle, Pennsylvania, learning the trade of a tanner with Andrew Blair. Mastering the trade he came to Newville, and worked in a tannery, which he soon bought, and ran for a number of years. An upright, generous man he often helped others to his own detriment.
For forty-four years he was an elder in the Big Spring Presbyterian Church.
