General Notes: Husband - George Long

---

His parents were farmers in Berks County, Pennsylvania, of limited means, his youth was spent in agricultural work, except one winter when he worked at the cooper's trade. After his marriage he settled on a rented farm in Berks County, but in the spring of 1841 he removed with his family to Centre County. For about five years he lived on a rented farm one and one-half miles northeast of Aaronsburg, and then he removed to a rented farm in Gregg township on the Brush Valley road. His remaining years were passed in that township. He was a small man, and did not attain the ordinary limit of three-score years and ten.
He and his wife belonged to the sect known as the River Dunkards, and in accordance with the tenets of that faith Mr. Long refrained from participation in politics, and seldom or never voted. In early years he sympathized with the Democratic party, but after the opening of the Civil war he expressed his hearty endorsement of Republican principles. Although he was a most industrious worker he never accumulated anything beyond a meager competence.
