General Notes: Husband - Louis Duvall


He received a common-school education, and after his marriage, removed to Still Water, Ohio, then almost an unbroken wilderness. They were in constant dread of the Indians, and when he was obliged to leave home to go to mill, his wife would hide herself and their children until his return. He contracted malaria while in Ohio, and returned to Washington County, Pennsylvania, to regain his health. No house being ready for them on their return, they lived for a time in a barn, which was remodeled and fitted up for the purpose. But though living to a goodly age, Mr. Duvall never regained his health, and upon the devoted wife and mother fell the heavy weight of providing and caring for the needs of the family. She often found it necessary to take her infant to the field, leaving it in a corner of the fence while she hoed corn. By their united efforts, in spite of his poor health, they were successful and accumulated considerable property.
He and his wife were members of the Society of Friends, being regular attendants at the services, though the meeting house was five miles distant.
