General Notes: Husband - Josiah Deming


He was born in Amsterdam, New York, and came to Spring Creek, Warren County, Pennsylvania, from Unadilla, New York, in February, 1838, and purchased the farm of Aaron Rose, embracing the site that became West Spring Creek and the farm later owned and occupied by his son, J. O. Deming. This piece of land contained 149 acres, and at that time there had been but one village lot measured and sold off-the one occupied by Curtis Johnson. Mr. Deming divided his land into village lots and deliberately started the construction of a village. He was a gunsmith by trade, and he at once opened a gun-shop, a saw-mill, and a grist-mill. He also built the first hotel in town at that place, and was a most liberal contributor toward the building of the Union Church edifice. In 1866 he resigned his business into the hands of his children.


General Notes: Wife - Asenath Mudge


She was descended from an English family who emigrated to America in Puritan times, the first of the name on the American continent being Joseph Mudge, one of the first and most pow­erful Methodist preachers in the country.
